Upper estimate price exceeded by 25 %.

The work A wooded landscape with a ruined moated castle, figures ferrying across the water and others resting on the bank by John Rathbone was auctioned at Christies in London in May 2012. It achieved a price of GBP 4,375.00 (€ 5,451.06), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 25%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by John Rathbone - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Landscapes Near Naples, which sold at auction in June 2008 for GBP 11,875.00 (€ 15,010.40).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 25 % übertroffen

Die Arbeit A wooded landscape with a ruined moated castle, figures ferrying across the water and others resting on the bank von John Rathbone kam im Mai 2012 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 4.375,00 (€ 5.451,06) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 25%. Für andere Arbeiten von John Rathbone mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Landscapes Near Naples beobachtet, die im Juni 2008 für GBP 11.875,00 (€ 15.010,40) versteigert wurde.
