Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by John Doyle could be acquired at Christies in London in December 2006 for an unexpectedly low price. In the 20th Century British Art & Dreaming Spires; Watercolours of Oxford and Cambridge Colleges auction, the work St. John's College, The Great Gate changed hands for GBP 480.00 (€ 712.38) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 800.00 – 1,200.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by John Doyle - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Taking an Airing in Hyde Park, which sold at auction in May 2014 for GBP 2,125.00 (€ 2,611.69).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von John Doyle konnte im Dezember 2006 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion 20th Century British Art & Dreaming Spires; Watercolours of Oxford and Cambridge Colleges wechselte die Arbeit St. John's College, The Great Gate für GBP 480,00 (€ 712,38) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 800,00 – 1.200,00. Für andere Arbeiten von John Doyle mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Taking an Airing in Hyde Park beobachtet, die im Mai 2014 für GBP 2.125,00 (€ 2.611,69) versteigert wurde.
