Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Portrait of a lady, possibly Catherine of Braganza (1638-1705) by John Michael Wright was auctioned at Sothebys in London in July 2021. It changed hands for a price of GBP 27,720.00 (€ 32,507.45) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Michael Wright achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A Highland Chieftain: Portrait of Lord Mungo Murray (1668-1700), full-length, in highland dress, holding a flintlock sporting gun in his right hand, a gilt-hilt ribbon basket sword at his left side, in a landscape with a flock of wild goats beyond in June 2000 with an auction result of GBP 322,750.00 (€ 511,59
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Portrait of a lady, possibly Catherine of Braganza (1638-1705) von John Michael Wright kam im Juli 2021 bei Sothebys in London zur Auktion. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von GBP 27.720,00 (€ 32.507,45) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 20.000,00 – 30.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Michael Wright erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A Highland Chieftain: Portrait of Lord Mungo Murray (1668-1700), full-length, in highland dress, holding a flintlock sporting gun in his right hand, a gilt-hilt ribbon basket sword at his left side, in a landscape with a flock of wild goats beyond im Juni 2000 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 322.750,00 (€ 511.598,48).
