Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Study of a seated male nude, right leg raised by John Flaxman was auctioned at Christies in London in November 2011. The price achieved of GBP 1,000.00 (€ 1,167.40) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 800.00 – 1,200.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Flaxman achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Angels Rescuing A Soul From The Ranks of The Dead in June 2006 with an auction result of GBP 14,400.00 (€ 20,836.56).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Study of a seated male nude, right leg raised von John Flaxman kam im November 2011 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 1.000,00 (€ 1.167,40) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 800,00 – 1.200,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Flaxman erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Angels Rescuing A Soul From The Ranks of The Dead im Juni 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 14.400,00 (€ 20.836,56).
