A top price for Mary Jewels - as previously expected
The work Cornubia by Mary Jewels was auctioned at Christies in London in November 2000. The price achieved of GBP 4,700.00 (€ 7,681.96) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Cornubia is the most expensive artwork by Mary Jewels that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit Cornubia von Mary Jewels kam im November 2000 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 4.700,00 (€ 7.681,96) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Cornubia das teuerste Kunstwerk von Mary Jewels, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
