Sold at the upper estimate price
In November 2005 Christies in London held the auction MARITIME PICTURES, which included the work Ships of The Fleet of George Brown And Harrison In The Mersey Off Liverpool by Joseph Heard. The auction ended at the price of GBP 9,000.00 (€ 13,222.14), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of GBP 7,000.00 – 9,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Joseph Heard - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Douglas Bay, Isle of Man, c. 1840, which sold at auction in April last year for GBP 31,800.00 (€ 37,920.38).
Zuschlag beim oberen Schätzpreis
Im November 2005 führte Christies in London die Auktion MARITIME PICTURES durch, in der auch die Arbeit Ships of The Fleet of George Brown And Harrison In The Mersey Off Liverpool von Joseph Heard zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 9.000,00 (€ 13.222,14) entsprach exakt dem oberen Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 7.000,00 – 9.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Joseph Heard mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Douglas Bay, Isle of Man, c. 1840 beobachtet, die im April letzten Jahres für GBP 31.800,00 (€ 37.920,38) versteigert wurde.
