Auction result well in line with expectations
In May 2013 Christies in London held the auction Christie's Interiors, which included the work Verona by Richard Henry Wright. The price achieved of GBP 1,000.00 (€ 1,169.16) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 800.00 – 1,200.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Richard Henry Wright - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work An extensive view of London observed from Tower Bridge looking towards St. Paul's Cathedral, which sold at auction in September 2012 for GBP 3,250.00 (€ 4,078.17).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Mai 2013 führte Christies in London die Auktion Christie's Interiors durch, in der auch die Arbeit Verona von Richard Henry Wright zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 1.000,00 (€ 1.169,16) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 800,00 – 1.200,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Richard Henry Wright mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit An extensive view of London observed from Tower Bridge looking towards St. Paul's Cathedral beobachtet, die im September 2012 für GBP 3.250,00 (€ 4.078,17) versteigert wurde.
