A top price for John Robert Keitley Duff - as previously expected

In March 2007 Christies in London held the auction British & Continental Watercolours & Maritime Paintings, which included the work The new moon (illustrated); and Feeding the flock by John Robert Keitley Duff. The price achieved of GBP 540.00 (€ 794.82) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 400.00 – 600.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, The new moon (illustrated); and Feeding the flock is the most expensive artwork by John Robert Keitley Duff that we have observed at auctions so far.

Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage

Im März 2007 führte Christies in London die Auktion British & Continental Watercolours & Maritime Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit The new moon (illustrated); and Feeding the flock von John Robert Keitley Duff zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 540,00 (€ 794,82) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 400,00 – 600,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist The new moon (illustrated); and Feeding the flock das teuerste Kunstwerk von John Robert Keitley Duff, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
