Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A storm on the Ganges by George Francis White was sold in the Travel, Science and Natural History auction at Christies in London in September 2010. The price achieved of GBP 875.00 (€ 1,012.03) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 700.00 – 1,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by George Francis White achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Lieutenant-Colonel George Francis White (1808-1898) in July 2006 with an auction result of GBP 7,800.00 (€ 11,418.29).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit A storm on the Ganges von George Francis White wurde im September 2010 in der Auktion Travel, Science and Natural History bei Christies in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 875,00 (€ 1.012,03) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 700,00 – 1.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von George Francis White erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Lieutenant-Colonel George Francis White (1808-1898) im Juli 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 7.800,00 (€ 11.418,29).
