Sold at the lower estimate price
In December 2007 Christies in London held the auction British, Continental & Russian Pictures, which included the work The Assignation by John Phillip. The result of GBP 300.00 (€ 407.65) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 300.00 – 500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Phillip achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Early Career of Murillo - 1634 'He was reduced to earn his daily bread by painting coarse and hasty pictures for the Feria (weekly fair) held in a broad street branching from the northern end of the Old Alameda and in front of the old church of ' in February 2003 with an auction result of GBP 94,650.00 (€ 138,186
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Im Dezember 2007 führte Christies in London die Auktion British, Continental & Russian Pictures durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Assignation von John Phillip zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 300,00 (€ 407,65) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 300,00 – 500,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Phillip erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Early Career of Murillo - 1634 'He was reduced to earn his daily bread by painting coarse and hasty pictures for the Feria (weekly fair) held in a broad street branching from the northern end of the Old Alameda and in front of the old church of ' im Februar 2003 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 94.650,00 (€ 138.186,01).
