Auction result well in line with expectations

In November 2007 Sothebys in Sydney held the auction Important Australian Art, which included the work Australian Self-Portrait by John Longstaff. It changed hands for a price of AUD 14,400.00 (€ 8,674.51) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of AUD 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. Admittedly, works by John Longstaff have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Master Rupert Ryan, 1898 in August 2021 with an auction result of AUD 61,500.00 (€ 52,118.64).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im November 2007 führte Sothebys in Sydney die Auktion Important Australian Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Australian Self-Portrait von John Longstaff zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von AUD 14.400,00 (€ 8.674,51) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von AUD 10.000,00 – 15.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von John Longstaff auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Master Rupert Ryan, 1898 im August 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von AUD 61.500,00 (€ 52.118,64).
