Found at Christies, London
THE ROYAL & SUNALLIANCE COLLECTION, Lot 6
19. MAY - 19. MAY 2005
Estimate: 150 - 250 GBP
Price realised: 456 GBP
Julian Rossi Ashton (1851-1942)
Life in London
signed 'Rossi Ashton' (upper left), inscribed 'LIFE IN LONDON' (upper centre in the margin) and 'One of the Best' (lower right in the margin)
pencil and coloured chalks
13 x 18 in. (33 x 45.7 cm.)

Upper estimate price exceeded by 82 %.

This artwork by Julian Rossi Ashton achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in May 2005. In the THE ROYAL & SUNALLIANCE COLLECTION auction, the work Life in London sold for GBP 456.00 (€ 673.20) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 250.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Julian Rossi Ashton achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Summer Holidays in December 2007 with an auction result of GBP 58,100.00 (€ 78,948.04).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 82 % übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von Julian Rossi Ashton erzielte im Mai 2005 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion THE ROYAL & SUNALLIANCE COLLECTION wurde die Arbeit Life in London für GBP 456,00 (€ 673,20) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 250,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Julian Rossi Ashton erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Summer Holidays im Dezember 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 58.100,00 (€ 78.948,04).
