Auction result well in line with expectations
In September 2003 Christies in London held the auction British and Victorian Pictures, which included the work Portrait of Sir John Streynsham Master (1640-1723), bust-length, in brown robes, sculpted cartouche by John Riley. The price achieved of GBP 4,700.00 (€ 4,734.18) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Admittedly, works by John Riley 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 Frances Wiat, three-quarter-length, seated, in an ochre dress and blue wrap, holding an orange in her left hand, her right arm resting on a plinth, before a draped curtain in June 2000 with an auction result of GBP 25,850.00 (€ 40,975.43).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im September 2003 führte Christies in London die Auktion British and Victorian Pictures durch, in der auch die Arbeit Portrait of Sir John Streynsham Master (1640-1723), bust-length, in brown robes, sculpted cartouche von John Riley zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 4.700,00 (€ 4.734,18) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von John Riley auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Portrait of Frances Wiat, three-quarter-length, seated, in an ochre dress and blue wrap, holding an orange in her left hand, her right arm resting on a plinth, before a draped curtain im Juni 2000 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 25.850,00 (€ 40.975,43).
