Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Lepidoptery – a Short Field Guide by Peter Brookes was auctioned at Bonhams in London in December this year. The price achieved of GBP 512.00 (€ 589.80) 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 Peter Brookes achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work ‘Retire? Pah! Sir Alex Schmalex...’ in March 2018 with an auction result of GBP 8,125.00 (€ 9,250.76).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Lepidoptery – a Short Field Guide von Peter Brookes kam im Dezember diesen Jahres bei Bonhams in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 512,00 (€ 589,80) 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 Peter Brookes erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit ‘Retire? Pah! Sir Alex Schmalex...’ im März 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 8.125,00 (€ 9.250,76).
