Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Linnaeus Tripe could be acquired at Sothebys in New York in April 2007 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Photographs from the Private Collection of Margaret W. Weston auction, the work 'View Of The Nave From The Simhasanum At The Westend Sic' changed hands for USD 4,800.00 (€ 3,513.91) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 8,000.00 – 12,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Linnaeus Tripe achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Views of India, Indonesia and Myanmar (Burma), c. 1858 in September 2017 with an auction result of USD 107,500.00 (€ 91,001.44).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Linnaeus Tripe konnte im April 2007 bei Sothebys in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Photographs from the Private Collection of Margaret W. Weston wechselte die Arbeit 'View Of The Nave From The Simhasanum At The Westend Sic' für USD 4.800,00 (€ 3.513,91) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 8.000,00 – 12.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Linnaeus Tripe erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Views of India, Indonesia and Myanmar (Burma), c. 1858 im September 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 107.500,00 (€ 91.001,44).
