Auction result misses estimated price range
In April 2003 a collector was able to acquire the work Sturgess' Room (Studio) by Reginald Ward Sturgess for AUD 998.75 (€ 509.30). This price was achieved in the auction THE ESTATE OF THE LATE FREDERICK D. BLADIN at Christies in Melbourne and was even below the estimate range of AUD 1,000.00 – 2,000.00 set by the auction house. Admittedly, works by Reginald Ward Sturgess have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Australia three Watercolours By R.W Sturgess And Harold Herbert in August 2008 with an auction result of AUD 5,040.00 (€ 2,942.09).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im April 2003 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Sturgess' Room (Studio) von Reginald Ward Sturgess für AUD 998,75 (€ 509,30) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion THE ESTATE OF THE LATE FREDERICK D. BLADIN bei Christies in Melbourne erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von AUD 1.000,00 – 2.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Reginald Ward Sturgess auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Australia three Watercolours By R.W Sturgess And Harold Herbert im August 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von AUD 5.040,00 (€ 2.942,09).
