Auction result well in line with expectations
The work An illustration to 'The Newcombes' by Richard Doyle was auctioned at Christies in London in December 2005. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 200.00 – 300.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 216.00 (€ 313.51) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Richard Doyle achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Elves in a Rabbit Warren in June 2010 with an auction result of GBP 25,000.00 (€ 30,402.33).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit An illustration to 'The Newcombes' von Richard Doyle kam im Dezember 2005 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 200,00 – 300,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 216,00 (€ 313,51) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Richard Doyle erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Elves in a Rabbit Warren im Juni 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 25.000,00 (€ 30.402,33).
