Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Max Ludby could be acquired at Christies in London in December 2004 for an unexpectedly low price. In the British and Continental Watercolours including Original Book auction, the work Sheep resting by a barn changed hands for GBP 239.00 (€ 338.25) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 300.00 – 500.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Max Ludby - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The hay wagon returning home at dusk, which sold at auction in July 2004 for GBP 717.00 (€ 1,083.54).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Max Ludby konnte im Dezember 2004 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion British and Continental Watercolours including Original Book wechselte die Arbeit Sheep resting by a barn für GBP 239,00 (€ 338,25) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 300,00 – 500,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Max Ludby mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The hay wagon returning home at dusk beobachtet, die im Juli 2004 für GBP 717,00 (€ 1.083,54) versteigert wurde.
