Auction result well in line with expectations
In May 2012 Christies in London held the auction Maritime Art, which included the work Hawke's fleet at Spithead in 'The Year of Victories', 1759 by Mark Richard Myers. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 3,250.00 (€ 4,049.36) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Mark Richard Myers - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The cutting out of the Curieux, Martinique, 4th February 1804, which sold at auction in May 2012 for GBP 7,500.00 (€ 9,344.67).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Mai 2012 führte Christies in London die Auktion Maritime Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Hawke's fleet at Spithead in 'The Year of Victories', 1759 von Mark Richard Myers zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 3.250,00 (€ 4.049,36) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Mark Richard Myers mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The cutting out of the Curieux, Martinique, 4th February 1804 beobachtet, die im Mai 2012 für GBP 7.500,00 (€ 9.344,67) versteigert wurde.
