Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Portrait Of Asaf-Ud-Daula, Nawab Wazir Of Oudh (1748-1797) by Ozias Humphry was auctioned at Sothebys in London in July 2019. The result of GBP 6,000.00 (€ 6,587.60) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 6,000.00 – 8,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ozias Humphry achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Sahibzada (C. 1782 - C. 1817), In Orange And White Robe, Wearing A Blue Nawabi Turban, Seated Cross-Legged On A Gold Striped Purple Cushion; Column Background in November 2013 with an auction result of GBP 56,250.00 (€ 67,689.35).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Die Arbeit Portrait Of Asaf-Ud-Daula, Nawab Wazir Of Oudh (1748-1797) von Ozias Humphry kam im Juli 2019 bei Sothebys in London zur Auktion. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 6.000,00 (€ 6.587,60) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 6.000,00 – 8.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Ozias Humphry erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Sahibzada (C. 1782 - C. 1817), In Orange And White Robe, Wearing A Blue Nawabi Turban, Seated Cross-Legged On A Gold Striped Purple Cushion; Column Background im November 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 56.250,00 (€ 67.689,35).
