Upper estimate price exceeded by 35 %.
The work The Ruins Of Trionto by John Martin was auctioned at Sothebys in London in July 2014. It achieved a price of GBP 16,250.00 (€ 20,496.36), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 35%. 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).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 35 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit The Ruins Of Trionto von John Martin kam im Juli 2014 bei Sothebys in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 16.250,00 (€ 20.496,36) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 35%. 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).
