Auction result well in line with expectations
In February 2003 Christies in London held the auction THE FORBES COLLECTION OF VICTORIAN PICTURES AND WORKS OF ART, which included the work The Moonlight Serenade by Philip Hermogenes Calderon. The price achieved of GBP 13,742.50 (€ 20,063.62) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Philip Hermogenes Calderon - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A Woodland Nymph, which sold at auction in December 2007 for GBP 34,100.00 (€ 46,336.12).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Februar 2003 führte Christies in London die Auktion THE FORBES COLLECTION OF VICTORIAN PICTURES AND WORKS OF ART durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Moonlight Serenade von Philip Hermogenes Calderon zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 13.742,50 (€ 20.063,62) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 10.000,00 – 15.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Philip Hermogenes Calderon mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A Woodland Nymph beobachtet, die im Dezember 2007 für GBP 34.100,00 (€ 46.336,12) versteigert wurde.
