Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Sorcery From The Sky by Michael Vaughan was sold in the Marine Art auction at Sothebys in London in December 2006. 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 3,360.00 (€ 4,986.66) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Other works by Michael Vaughan have already achieved higher auction prices, for example, in December 2006 the work The Tallship Stavros was auctioned for GBP 6,600.00 (€ 9,795.23).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Sorcery From The Sky von Michael Vaughan wurde im Dezember 2006 in der Auktion Marine Art bei Sothebys in London versteigert. 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 3.360,00 (€ 4.986,66) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Andere Arbeiten von Michael Vaughan konnten bereits höhere Auktionspreise erzielen, so wurde im Dezember 2006 die Arbeit The Tallship Stavros für GBP 6.600,00 (€ 9.795,23) versteigert.
