Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by John Tenniel achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in London in March 2018. In the The Political Cartoon Collection of Jeffrey Archer auction, the work ‘Hard Lines!’ (‘After All The Big Things I’Ve Been In, To Be Pulled Up For This! Of Course I Can Set It Right, But It’S Really Too Disgusting!’) sold for GBP 2,375.00 (€ 2,704.07) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 900.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Tenniel achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work ‘Nuts To Crack’ in March 2018 with an auction result of GBP 27,500.00 (€ 31,310.27).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von John Tenniel erzielte im März 2018 bei Sothebys in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion The Political Cartoon Collection of Jeffrey Archer wurde die Arbeit ‘Hard Lines!’ (‘After All The Big Things I’Ve Been In, To Be Pulled Up For This! Of Course I Can Set It Right, But It’S Really Too Disgusting!’) für GBP 2.375,00 (€ 2.704,07) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 900,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Tenniel erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit ‘Nuts To Crack’ im März 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 27.500,00 (€ 31.310,27).
