Auction result well in line with expectations
In July 2006 Christies in London held the auction Old Master and 19th Century Drawings, which included the work A View of The Road From Bonn To Bad Godesberg In Germany At Sunset, With A Gothic Monument On The Left And The Ruins of Godesberg Castle In The Background, Peasants Repairing A Carriage In The Foreground by Josephus Augustus Knip. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 3,360.00 (€ 4,918.65) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Josephus Augustus Knip achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Maison de Buffon in the Jardin de Plantes, Paris in November 2012 with an auction result of EUR 75,400.00.
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juli 2006 führte Christies in London die Auktion Old Master and 19th Century Drawings durch, in der auch die Arbeit A View of The Road From Bonn To Bad Godesberg In Germany At Sunset, With A Gothic Monument On The Left And The Ruins of Godesberg Castle In The Background, Peasants Repairing A Carriage In The Foreground von Josephus Augustus Knip zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 3.360,00 (€ 4.918,65) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Josephus Augustus Knip erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Maison de Buffon in the Jardin de Plantes, Paris im November 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 75.400,00.
