Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Westward leading the fleet, Marmion and Jeannie Deans astern by John J. Holmes was sold in the Christie's Interiors auction at Christies in London in November 2008. The result of GBP 1,000.00 (€ 1,209.08) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 1,000.00 – 1,500.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by John J. Holmes - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Astra, Candida and Shamrock (V) racing off Cowes, 1934, which sold at auction in May 2007 for GBP 2,880.00 (€ 4,238.11).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Die Arbeit Westward leading the fleet, Marmion and Jeannie Deans astern von John J. Holmes wurde im November 2008 in der Auktion Christie's Interiors bei Christies in London versteigert. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 1.000,00 (€ 1.209,08) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 1.000,00 – 1.500,00. Für andere Arbeiten von John J. Holmes mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Astra, Candida and Shamrock (V) racing off Cowes, 1934 beobachtet, die im Mai 2007 für GBP 2.880,00 (€ 4.238,11) versteigert wurde.
