Sold at the lower estimate price
In October 2019 Christies in New York held the auction European Art Part II, which included the work An Egyptian Difficulty in the Time of Augustus by John Reinhard Weguelin. The result of USD 25,000.00 (€ 22,411.47) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 25,000.00 – 35,000.00. Admittedly, works by John Reinhard Weguelin have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Bacchus And The Choir Of Nymphs 'I Saw Within Remotest Rocks (Believe That Read In After Time) Bacchus Who Taught And Nymphs In Flocks Who Learnt The Lesson Of His Rhyme' in June 2001 with an auction result of GBP 91,750.00 (€ 152,415.00).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Im Oktober 2019 führte Christies in New York die Auktion European Art Part II durch, in der auch die Arbeit An Egyptian Difficulty in the Time of Augustus von John Reinhard Weguelin zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 25.000,00 (€ 22.411,47) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 25.000,00 – 35.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von John Reinhard Weguelin auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Bacchus And The Choir Of Nymphs 'I Saw Within Remotest Rocks (Believe That Read In After Time) Bacchus Who Taught And Nymphs In Flocks Who Learnt The Lesson Of His Rhyme' im Juni 2001 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 91.750,00 (€ 152.415,00).
