Auction result well in line with expectations

In July 2008 Christies in London held the auction Old Master & British Pictures, which included the work Portrait of Katherine (d.1766), Countess of Rockingham, later Countess Guilford, three-quarter-length, in a black bejewelled dress with lace sleeves and an ostrich plumed headdress, by a red curtain, a landscape beyond by John Vanderbank. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 5,000.00 – 8,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 5,625.00 (€ 7,146.63) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by John Vanderbank have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Mary, Countess of Delorain (1705-1737), three-quarter length, in a white dress by an orange tree, a landscape beyond in July 2018 with an auction result of GBP 35,000.00 (€ 39,242.70).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im Juli 2008 führte Christies in London die Auktion Old Master & British Pictures durch, in der auch die Arbeit Portrait of Katherine (d.1766), Countess of Rockingham, later Countess Guilford, three-quarter-length, in a black bejewelled dress with lace sleeves and an ostrich plumed headdress, by a red curtain, a landscape beyond von John Vanderbank zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 5.000,00 – 8.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 5.625,00 (€ 7.146,63) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von John Vanderbank auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Mary, Countess of Delorain (1705-1737), three-quarter length, in a white dress by an orange tree, a landscape beyond im Juli 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 35.000,00
