Auction result misses estimated price range
In June 2004 a collector was able to acquire the work Caravan with the Pyramids and Sphinx beyond by Joseph Austin Benwell for GBP 5,975.00 (€ 8,892.59). This price was achieved in the auction 19TH CENTURY EUROPEAN ART at Christies in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 6,000.00 – 9,000.00 set by the auction house. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Joseph Austin Benwell - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A Caravan Passing The Statues of Memnon In The Plain of Goorna At Thebes, which sold at auction in April 2006 for USD 31,200.00 (€ 24,714.83).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Juni 2004 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Caravan with the Pyramids and Sphinx beyond von Joseph Austin Benwell für GBP 5.975,00 (€ 8.892,59) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion 19TH CENTURY EUROPEAN ART bei Christies in London erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 6.000,00 – 9.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Joseph Austin Benwell mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A Caravan Passing The Statues of Memnon In The Plain of Goorna At Thebes beobachtet, die im April 2006 für USD 31.200,00 (€ 24.714,83) versteigert wurde.
