Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Alice Margaret Price As A Shepherdess, 1878 by Lewis Carroll was sold in the Photographs auction at Sothebys in London in May 2008. The price achieved of GBP 4,750.00 (€ 6,042.21) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Lewis Carroll achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Alexandra Kitchin in April 2008 with an auction result of USD 133,000.00 (€ 85,431.65).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Alice Margaret Price As A Shepherdess, 1878 von Lewis Carroll wurde im Mai 2008 in der Auktion Photographs bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 4.750,00 (€ 6.042,21) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Lewis Carroll erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Alexandra Kitchin im April 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 133.000,00 (€ 85.431,65).
