This artwork by Norman Adams achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in May 2005. In the 20th Century British Art auction, the work Village In The Mountains, Southern France; And Evening In The Orchard, The Ardeche sold for GBP 720.00 (€ 1,062.95) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 300.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Norman Adams - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Oliviers in the Weed Field; Forest, Ardéche; Yorkshire Study; Cherry Orchard, Ardéche; Trees at Douk Ghyll; South France; and Bright Light on the Sea, Hebridean Study, which sold at auction in May 2007 for GBP 1,800.00 (€ 2,648.82).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Norman Adams erzielte im Mai 2005 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion 20th Century British Art wurde die Arbeit Village In The Mountains, Southern France; And Evening In The Orchard, The Ardeche für GBP 720,00 (€ 1.062,95) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 300,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Norman Adams mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Oliviers in the Weed Field; Forest, Ardéche; Yorkshire Study; Cherry Orchard, Ardéche; Trees at Douk Ghyll; South France; and Bright Light on the Sea, Hebridean Study beobachtet, die im Mai 2007 für GBP 1.800,00 (€ 2.648,82) versteigert wurde.
