Upper estimate price exceeded by 33 %.
The work H.M.S. Britannia leaving Valetta to return home to Portsmouth in 1850 by Robert Strickland Thomas was sold in the Maritime auction at Christies in London in May 2008. It achieved a price of GBP 10,625.00 (€ 13,515.46), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 33%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Robert Strickland Thomas achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The British fleet in action at Trafalgar, with Nelson's Victory heavily engaged; and After the close of the action in October 2007 with an auction result of GBP 96,500.00 (€ 138,580.35).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 33 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit H.M.S. Britannia leaving Valetta to return home to Portsmouth in 1850 von Robert Strickland Thomas wurde im Mai 2008 in der Auktion Maritime bei Christies in London versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 10.625,00 (€ 13.515,46) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 33%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Robert Strickland Thomas erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The British fleet in action at Trafalgar, with Nelson's Victory heavily engaged; and After the close of the action im Oktober 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 96.500,00 (€ 138.580,35).
