Sold at the lower estimate price
In December 2019 Christies in London held the auction British Art: Victorian, Pre-Raphaelite & British Impressionist Art, which included the work Lucky Dogs by Richard Ansdell. The result of GBP 10,000.00 (€ 11,818.83) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Richard Ansdell achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Wounded Hound in November 2006 with an auction result of GBP 478,400.00 (€ 710,438.97).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Im Dezember 2019 führte Christies in London die Auktion British Art: Victorian, Pre-Raphaelite & British Impressionist Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Lucky Dogs von Richard Ansdell zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 10.000,00 (€ 11.818,83) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 10.000,00 – 15.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Richard Ansdell erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Wounded Hound im November 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 478.400,00 (€ 710.438,97).
