Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work H.M. Armed Schooner Pickle by Montague Dawson was sold in the The Marine Sale auction at Bonhams in London in October last year. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 20,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 20,400.00 (€ 23,765.77). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Montague Dawson achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The action between H.M.S. Shannon and the U.S.S. Chesapeake,1st June 1813 in February 2006 with an auction result of USD 486,400.00 (€ 407,882.60).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit H.M. Armed Schooner Pickle von Montague Dawson wurde im Oktober letzten Jahres in der Auktion The Marine Sale bei Bonhams in London versteigert. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 20.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 20.400,00 (€ 23.765,77) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Montague Dawson erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The action between H.M.S. Shannon and the U.S.S. Chesapeake,1st June 1813 im Februar 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 486.400,00 (€ 407.882,60).
