Auction result well in line with expectations
In November 2011 Sothebys in Toronto held the auction Important Canadian Art, which included the work Les Amoureux by John Geoffrey Caruthers Little. The price achieved of CAD 6,900.00 (€ 5,028.44) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as CAD 6,000.00 – 8,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Geoffrey Caruthers Little achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Tropic of Cancer in May 2018 with an auction result of USD 87,500.00 (€ 74,978.58).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im November 2011 führte Sothebys in Toronto die Auktion Important Canadian Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Les Amoureux von John Geoffrey Caruthers Little zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von CAD 6.900,00 (€ 5.028,44) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit CAD 6.000,00 – 8.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Geoffrey Caruthers Little erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Tropic of Cancer im Mai 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 87.500,00 (€ 74.978,58).
