Auction result well in line with expectations
In October 2007 Christies in London held the auction British & Continental Watercolours and Drawings, which included the work A chance meeting by the statue by John Edmund Buckley. The price achieved of GBP 1,250.00 (€ 1,795.08) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 1,000.00 – 1,500.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by John Edmund Buckley - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Dartington Manor House, Devon, which sold at auction in December this year for GBP 3,840.00 (€ 4,423.53).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Oktober 2007 führte Christies in London die Auktion British & Continental Watercolours and Drawings durch, in der auch die Arbeit A chance meeting by the statue von John Edmund Buckley zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 1.250,00 (€ 1.795,08) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 1.000,00 – 1.500,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von John Edmund Buckley mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Dartington Manor House, Devon beobachtet, die im Dezember diesen Jahres für GBP 3.840,00 (€ 4.423,53) versteigert wurde.
