Auction result well in line with expectations
In May 2008 Sothebys in London held the auction European Paintings including German, Austrian & Central European Paintings and The Orientalist Sale, which included the work German Abend Am Mittelmeer (Sunset Over A Mediterranean Port) by Pieter Francis Peters. The price achieved of GBP 9,375.00 (€ 11,925.41) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 8,000.00 – 12,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Pieter Francis Peters - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A view of Istanbul with the Bosporus at sunset, which sold at auction in November 2016 for EUR 27,500.00.
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Mai 2008 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion European Paintings including German, Austrian & Central European Paintings and The Orientalist Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit German Abend Am Mittelmeer (Sunset Over A Mediterranean Port) von Pieter Francis Peters zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 9.375,00 (€ 11.925,41) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 8.000,00 – 12.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Pieter Francis Peters mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A view of Istanbul with the Bosporus at sunset beobachtet, die im November 2016 für EUR 27.500,00 versteigert wurde.
