Auction result well in line with expectations

The work A gentleman, in a brown coat with black collar and yellow waistcoat, powdered wig by Nicholas Freese was auctioned at Christies in London in May 2004. The price achieved of GBP 501.90 (€ 753.03) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 400.00 – 600.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Nicholas Freese achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A young officer of a light company, in red uniform with yellow facings, silver epaulettes, black stock and frilled white cravat, black shoulder belt with gilt belt plate, powdered hair; sky background in December 2008 with an auction result of GBP 11,250.00 (€ 11,815.77).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit A gentleman, in a brown coat with black collar and yellow waistcoat, powdered wig von Nicholas Freese kam im Mai 2004 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 501,90 (€ 753,03) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 400,00 – 600,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Nicholas Freese erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A young officer of a light company, in red uniform with yellow facings, silver epaulettes, black stock and frilled white cravat, black shoulder belt with gilt belt plate, powdered hair; sky background im Dezember 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 11.250,00 (€ 11.815,77).
