Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Fishing boats in an offshore breeze by Patrick Downie was sold in the Maritime Pictures auction 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 Patrick Downie achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A rainy evening, Paisley in October 2005 with an auction result of GBP 9,000.00 (€ 13,272.28).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Fishing boats in an offshore breeze von Patrick Downie wurde im Mai 2004 in der Auktion Maritime Pictures bei Christies in London versteigert. 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 Patrick Downie erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A rainy evening, Paisley im Oktober 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 9.000,00 (€ 13.272,28).
