Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Portrait Of John Masefield by Mary Cottenham Yeats was auctioned at Sothebys in London in September 2017. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 800.00 – 1,200.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 875.00 (€ 992.70) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Mary Cottenham Yeats achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Painted Chest With Scenes Of Hy Brazil in September 2017 with an auction result of GBP 12,500.00 (€ 14,181.41).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Portrait Of John Masefield von Mary Cottenham Yeats kam im September 2017 bei Sothebys in London zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 800,00 – 1.200,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 875,00 (€ 992,70) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Mary Cottenham Yeats erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Painted Chest With Scenes Of Hy Brazil im September 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 12.500,00 (€ 14.181,41).
