Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In November 2008 Sothebys in London held the auction A GREAT BRITISH COLLECTION: The pictures collected by Sir David and Lady Scott, sold to benefit the Finnis Scott Foundation, which included the work Fishing On The Greta, North Yorkshire by Richard Beavis. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 6,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 6,875.00 (€ 8,312.39). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Richard Beavis - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Halt Of Prince Charles Edward On The Banks Of The Nairne, which sold at auction in June 2011 for GBP 22,500.00 (€ 24,892.07).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im November 2008 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion A GREAT BRITISH COLLECTION: The pictures collected by Sir David and Lady Scott, sold to benefit the Finnis Scott Foundation durch, in der auch die Arbeit Fishing On The Greta, North Yorkshire von Richard Beavis zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 6.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 6.875,00 (€ 8.312,39) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Richard Beavis mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Halt Of Prince Charles Edward On The Banks Of The Nairne beobachtet, die im Juni 2011 für GBP 22.500,00 (€ 24.892,07) versteigert wurde.
