Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by John Joseph Cotman could be acquired at Christies in London in December 2004 for an unexpectedly low price. In the British and Continental Watercolours including Original Book auction, the work View over a stream towards a farmhouse changed hands for GBP 298.75 (€ 422.81) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 300.00 – 500.00. Admittedly, works by John Joseph Cotman have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Sandpits near Norwich, with the river Wherry beyond in September 2006 with an auction result of GBP 1,800.00 (€ 2,655.38).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von John Joseph Cotman konnte im Dezember 2004 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion British and Continental Watercolours including Original Book wechselte die Arbeit View over a stream towards a farmhouse für GBP 298,75 (€ 422,81) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 300,00 – 500,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von John Joseph Cotman auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Sandpits near Norwich, with the river Wherry beyond im September 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 1.800,00 (€ 2.655,38).
