Auction result well in line with expectations
In July 2019 Christies in London held the auction Old Masters Day Sale, which included the work A chestnut mare, traditionally identified as Mr. Charles Pelham's Brocklesby Betty , led by a jockey at Newmarket by John Wootton. The price achieved of GBP 17,500.00 (€ 19,213.84) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 15,000.00 – 20,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Wootton achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A Hunting Party; Possibly Depicting Charles Spencer, 3Rd Duke Of Marlborough (1706-1758) And His Wife Elizabeth, Countess Of Marlborough (D.1761) in July 2012 with an auction result of GBP 577,250.00 (€ 735,261.35).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juli 2019 führte Christies in London die Auktion Old Masters Day Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit A chestnut mare, traditionally identified as Mr. Charles Pelham's Brocklesby Betty , led by a jockey at Newmarket von John Wootton zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 17.500,00 (€ 19.213,84) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 15.000,00 – 20.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Wootton erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A Hunting Party; Possibly Depicting Charles Spencer, 3Rd Duke Of Marlborough (1706-1758) And His Wife Elizabeth, Countess Of Marlborough (D.1761) im Juli 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 577.250,00 (€ 735.261,35).
