Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The cotter's Saturday night: 'But hark a tap comes gently to the door, Jenny who kens the meaning of the same....' by John Raphael Smith was auctioned at Christies in London in October 2006. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 3,360.00 (€ 5,020.14) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by John Raphael Smith have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Portrait of John Horne Tooke (1736-1812), Small Full-Length, In A Black Sleeping Hat And Blue Suit, Reclining On A Bed in June 2005 with an auction result of GBP 18,000.00 (€ 26,677.14).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit The cotter's Saturday night: 'But hark a tap comes gently to the door, Jenny who kens the meaning of the same....' von John Raphael Smith kam im Oktober 2006 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 3.360,00 (€ 5.020,14) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von John Raphael Smith auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Portrait of John Horne Tooke (1736-1812), Small Full-Length, In A Black Sleeping Hat And Blue Suit, Reclining On A Bed im Juni 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 18.000,00 (€ 26.677,14).
