Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Portwrinkle Harbour by John Whipple was auctioned at Christies in London in October 2012. The result of GBP 500.00 (€ 621.66) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 500.00 – 800.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by John Whipple - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A sunny afternoon on the river, which sold at auction in March 2007 for GBP 1,560.00 (€ 2,296.14).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Die Arbeit Portwrinkle Harbour von John Whipple kam im Oktober 2012 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 500,00 (€ 621,66) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 500,00 – 800,00. Für andere Arbeiten von John Whipple mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A sunny afternoon on the river beobachtet, die im März 2007 für GBP 1.560,00 (€ 2.296,14) versteigert wurde.
