Sold at the lower estimate price

In October 2013 Christies in London held the auction Christie's Interiors, which included the work The English Barque Robert & Ann Leaving Malta by Nicolas Cammillieri of Malta. The result of GBP 1,500.00 (€ 1,772.99) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 1,500.00 – 2,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Nicolas Cammillieri of Malta - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The British barque Anna Robertson of Scarborough leaving Malta, which sold at auction in May 2011 for GBP 4,750.00 (€ 5,431.64).

Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis

Im Oktober 2013 führte Christies in London die Auktion Christie's Interiors durch, in der auch die Arbeit The English Barque Robert & Ann Leaving Malta von Nicolas Cammillieri of Malta zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 1.500,00 (€ 1.772,99) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 1.500,00 – 2.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Nicolas Cammillieri of Malta mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The British barque Anna Robertson of Scarborough leaving Malta beobachtet, die im Mai 2011 für GBP 4.750,00 (€ 5.431,64) versteigert wurde.
