Auction result misses estimated price range
In November 2008 a collector was able to acquire the work The Soldier'S Return by John Faed for GBP 18,750.00 (€ 22,670.16). This price was achieved in the auction A GREAT BRITISH COLLECTION: The pictures collected by Sir David and Lady Scott, sold to benefit the Finnis Scott Foundation at Sothebys in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 20,000.00 – 30,000.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Faed achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Boyhood, 1849 in February 2003 with an auction result of GBP 237,650.00 (€ 346,961.50).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im November 2008 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit The Soldier'S Return von John Faed für GBP 18.750,00 (€ 22.670,16) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion A GREAT BRITISH COLLECTION: The pictures collected by Sir David and Lady Scott, sold to benefit the Finnis Scott Foundation bei Sothebys in London erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 20.000,00 – 30.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Faed erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Boyhood, 1849 im Februar 2003 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 237.650,00 (€ 346.961,50).
