Arabs at an oasis, with a village and the Pyramids beyond
watercolour on paper
11¼ x 18¾in. (28.5 x 47.6cm.)

Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Arabs at an oasis, with a village and the Pyramids beyond by Otto Tilche was auctioned at Christies in London in October 2006. The price achieved of GBP 456.00 (€ 681.30) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 400.00 – 600.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Otto Tilche - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work An oasis before the Pyramids at Giza (illustrated); and A caravan before the Great Pyramid, which sold at auction in July 2007 for GBP 1,020.00 (€ 1,514.94).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Arabs at an oasis, with a village and the Pyramids beyond von Otto Tilche kam im Oktober 2006 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 456,00 (€ 681,30) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 400,00 – 600,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Otto Tilche mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit An oasis before the Pyramids at Giza (illustrated); and A caravan before the Great Pyramid beobachtet, die im Juli 2007 für GBP 1.020,00 (€ 1.514,94) versteigert wurde.
