Auction result well in line with expectations
In November 2006 Christies in London held the auction British and Continental Watercolours, which included the work Portrait of Lord Henry Bentck, Full-Length, With An Umbrella (Illustrated); And Portrait of The 5Th Duke of Portland, Full-Length, With Arms Folded by Joshua Dighton. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 400.00 – 600.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 420.00 (€ 623.71) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Joshua Dighton achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Seven jockeys; and Two huntsmen in June 2004 with an auction result of GBP 6,931.00 (€ 10,315.40).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im November 2006 führte Christies in London die Auktion British and Continental Watercolours durch, in der auch die Arbeit Portrait of Lord Henry Bentck, Full-Length, With An Umbrella (Illustrated); And Portrait of The 5Th Duke of Portland, Full-Length, With Arms Folded von Joshua Dighton zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 400,00 – 600,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 420,00 (€ 623,71) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Joshua Dighton erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Seven jockeys; and Two huntsmen im Juni 2004 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 6.931,00 (€ 10.315,40).
