Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Foot Ball by Isaac Robert Cruickshank was auctioned at Christies in London in November 2002. The price achieved of GBP 258.50 (€ 404.80) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 200.00 – 300.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Isaac Robert Cruickshank achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Laplanders, Reindeer &c. as Exhibited at the Egyptian Hall, Piccadilly. 1822.; and The Laplanders Return, to their Native Country under the Care of Mr Bullock & His Son. in September 2007 with an auction result of GBP 3,500.00 (€ 5,018.74).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Foot Ball von Isaac Robert Cruickshank kam im November 2002 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 258,50 (€ 404,80) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 200,00 – 300,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Isaac Robert Cruickshank erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Laplanders, Reindeer &c. as Exhibited at the Egyptian Hall, Piccadilly. 1822.; and The Laplanders Return, to their Native Country under the Care of Mr Bullock & His Son. im September 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 3.500,00 (€ 5.018,74).
