Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The Governess. 'Ye, Too, The Friendless, Yet Dependent, That Find Nor Home, Nor Lover. Sad Imprisoned Hearts, Captive To The Net of Circumstance.' (Martin Farquhar Tupper, Proverbial Philosophy, 1838-67) by Rebecca Solomon was sold in the Victorian & Traditionalist Pictures auction at Christies in London in June 2007. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 30,000.00 – 50,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 31,200.00 (€ 46,299.23) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by Rebecca Solomon have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work A Young Teacher in March last year with an auction result of GBP 302,400.00 (€ 358,529.23).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit The Governess. 'Ye, Too, The Friendless, Yet Dependent, That Find Nor Home, Nor Lover. Sad Imprisoned Hearts, Captive To The Net of Circumstance.' (Martin Farquhar Tupper, Proverbial Philosophy, 1838-67) von Rebecca Solomon wurde im Juni 2007 in der Auktion Victorian & Traditionalist Pictures bei Christies in London versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 30.000,00 – 50.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 31.200,00 (€ 46.299,23) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Rebecca Solomon auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit A Young Teacher im März letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 302.400,00 (€ 358.529,23).
