Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Justinian Gantz could be acquired at Sothebys in London in December 2018 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Art of Travel and Exploration auction, the work British the Fortress Of Gooty, Burma changed hands for GBP 2,375.00 (€ 2,645.96) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Justinian Gantz - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Indian figures and an elephant in a street outside a European house, Madras, which sold at auction in September 2000 for GBP 4,112.50 (€ 6,881.47).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Justinian Gantz konnte im Dezember 2018 bei Sothebys in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Art of Travel and Exploration wechselte die Arbeit British the Fortress Of Gooty, Burma für GBP 2.375,00 (€ 2.645,96) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 3.000,00 – 5.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Justinian Gantz mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Indian figures and an elephant in a street outside a European house, Madras beobachtet, die im September 2000 für GBP 4.112,50 (€ 6.881,47) versteigert wurde.
