Sold at the upper estimate price
In March 2018 Sothebys in London held the auction The Political Cartoon Collection of Jeffrey Archer, which included the work ‘Family Windsorus Bumbleris' by Peter Brookes. The auction ended at the price of GBP 1,500.00 (€ 1,707.83), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of GBP 1,000.00 – 1,500.00. Admittedly, works by Peter Brookes have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work ‘Retire? Pah! Sir Alex Schmalex...’ in March 2018 with an auction result of GBP 8,125.00 (€ 9,250.76).
Zuschlag beim oberen Schätzpreis
Im März 2018 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion The Political Cartoon Collection of Jeffrey Archer durch, in der auch die Arbeit ‘Family Windsorus Bumbleris' von Peter Brookes zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 1.500,00 (€ 1.707,83) entsprach exakt dem oberen Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 1.000,00 – 1.500,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Peter Brookes auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit ‘Retire? Pah! Sir Alex Schmalex...’ im März 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 8.125,00 (€ 9.250,76).
