Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Still-life of bird's nest and hawthorne, on a mossy bank by John Sherrin was auctioned at Christies in London in October 2001. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 1,000.00 – 1,500.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 1,057.50 (€ 1,709.07) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by John Sherrin - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Still Life with primroses, a violet and a birds nest on a mossy bank, which sold at auction in March 2002 for GBP 3,995.00 (€ 6,530.77).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Still-life of bird's nest and hawthorne, on a mossy bank von John Sherrin kam im Oktober 2001 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 1.000,00 – 1.500,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 1.057,50 (€ 1.709,07) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von John Sherrin mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Still Life with primroses, a violet and a birds nest on a mossy bank beobachtet, die im März 2002 für GBP 3.995,00 (€ 6.530,77) versteigert wurde.
