Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Portrait Of The Duke Of Hamilton’S Hound "Jewell" by John Wootton was sold in the Master Paintings & Sculpture Day Sale auction at Sothebys in New York in January 2017. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 40,000.00 – 60,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 43,750.00 (€ 40,531.78) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. 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
Die Arbeit Portrait Of The Duke Of Hamilton’S Hound "Jewell" von John Wootton wurde im Januar 2017 in der Auktion Master Paintings & Sculpture Day Sale bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 40.000,00 – 60.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 43.750,00 (€ 40.531,78) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. 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).
