Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Rev. John Swete could be acquired at Christies in London in March 2011 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Christie's Interiors Including Paintings, Drawings & Watercolours From The Collection of The Late John Appleby auction, the work Eleven views of the Lake District (one illustrated) changed hands for GBP 687.50 (€ 777.90) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 700.00 – 1,000.00. Admittedly, works by Rev. John Swete have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Views of Devon and Somerset: Bathing-place at Ilfracomb [sic (illustrated); Shalldon sic; Oxton House from the Octagon; The ruins of Berry Pomeroy Castle; A bridge over a river in spate; Ilford Bridge; Linmouth; Pixton Place, the seat of Lady Ackl|AID681630] in November 2010 with an auction result of GBP 5,250.00 (€ 6,273.
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

In der Auktion Christie's Interiors Including Paintings, Drawings & Watercolours From The Collection of The Late John Appleby wechselte die Arbeit Eleven views of the Lake District (one illustrated) für GBP 687,50 (€ 777,90) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 700,00 – 1.000,00.
