Sold at the lower estimate price
In December 2017 Sothebys in London held the auction Victorian, Pre-Raphaelite & British Impressionist Art, which included the work Playing Soldiers by Matthias Robinson. The result of GBP 3,000.00 (€ 3,376.06) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. Admittedly, works by Matthias Robinson have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Charge Of The Light Brigade in November 2004 with an auction result of GBP 9,560.00 (€ 13,752.01).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Im Dezember 2017 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Victorian, Pre-Raphaelite & British Impressionist Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Playing Soldiers von Matthias Robinson zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 3.000,00 (€ 3.376,06) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 3.000,00 – 5.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Matthias Robinson auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit The Charge Of The Light Brigade im November 2004 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 9.560,00 (€ 13.752,01).
