Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
When the work Landscape with Figures by Joshua Shaw was auctioned at Christies in New York in March 2012, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 10,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at USD 32,500.00 (€ 24,373.78). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Joshua Shaw - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A view of Dinting Vale, Glossop, Derbyshire, which sold at auction in June 2004 for GBP 44,215.00 (€ 65,805.16).
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Landscape with Figures von Joshua Shaw im März 2012 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 10.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 32.500,00 (€ 24.373,78) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Für andere Arbeiten von Joshua Shaw mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A view of Dinting Vale, Glossop, Derbyshire beobachtet, die im Juni 2004 für GBP 44.215,00 (€ 65.805,16) versteigert wurde.
