Auction result well in line with expectations
The work View Of Blackfriars Bridge And St. Paul'S Cathedral From The Thames (Illustrated); And View Of London Bridge And St. Paul'S Cathedral by John Millington was sold in the Christie's Interiors auction at Christies in London in June 2010. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 600.00 – 800.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 625.00 (€ 760.06) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by John Millington - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Blackfriars Bridge with St. Paul's in the distance, which sold at auction in May 2005 for GBP 1,080.00 (€ 1,594.42).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit View Of Blackfriars Bridge And St. Paul'S Cathedral From The Thames (Illustrated); And View Of London Bridge And St. Paul'S Cathedral von John Millington wurde im Juni 2010 in der Auktion Christie's Interiors bei Christies in London versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 600,00 – 800,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 625,00 (€ 760,06) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von John Millington mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Blackfriars Bridge with St. Paul's in the distance beobachtet, die im Mai 2005 für GBP 1.080,00 (€ 1.594,42) versteigert wurde.
