Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A Summer evening on the Thames, below Reading; and A peaceful day on the river, near Pangbourne-on-Thames by John Horace Hooper was auctioned at Christies in London in May 2004. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 2,031.50 (€ 3,048.00) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by John Horace Hooper - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A Moment'S Contemplation, which sold at auction in November 2005 for GBP 4,200.00 (€ 6,170.33).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit A Summer evening on the Thames, below Reading; and A peaceful day on the river, near Pangbourne-on-Thames von John Horace Hooper kam im Mai 2004 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 2.031,50 (€ 3.048,00) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von John Horace Hooper mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A Moment'S Contemplation beobachtet, die im November 2005 für GBP 4.200,00 (€ 6.170,33) versteigert wurde.
