Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Two Views of Indian Colonial Houses With Figures In The Foreground by Justinian Gantz was auctioned at Christies in London in May 2006. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 2,160.00 (€ 3,152.90) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. 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 im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Two Views of Indian Colonial Houses With Figures In The Foreground von Justinian Gantz kam im Mai 2006 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 2.160,00 (€ 3.152,90) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. 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.
