Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Satan in Council (Campbell-Wees 87) by John Martin was sold in the Old Master Prints including Property from the Collection of the Late Walter L. Strauss auction at Sothebys in London in December 2020. It changed hands for a price of GBP 1,890.00 (€ 2,111.30) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 1,500.00 – 2,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Martin achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Celestial City And The River Of Bliss in July 2015 with an auction result of GBP 2,725,000.00 (€ 3,863,134.75).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Satan in Council (Campbell-Wees 87) von John Martin wurde im Dezember 2020 in der Auktion Old Master Prints including Property from the Collection of the Late Walter L. Strauss bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von GBP 1.890,00 (€ 2.111,30) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 1.500,00 – 2.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Martin erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Celestial City And The River Of Bliss im Juli 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 2.725.000,00 (€ 3.863.134,75).
