Auction result well in line with expectations
In December 2011 Christies in London held the auction Old Master & Early British Drawings & Watercolours, which included the work A coachman and his team by Robert Dighton. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 1,200.00 – 1,800.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 1,250.00 (€ 1,497.05) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Robert Dighton - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Tally Ho!, which sold at auction in July 2013 for GBP 4,375.00 (€ 4,999.20).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Dezember 2011 führte Christies in London die Auktion Old Master & Early British Drawings & Watercolours durch, in der auch die Arbeit A coachman and his team von Robert Dighton zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 1.200,00 – 1.800,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 1.250,00 (€ 1.497,05) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Robert Dighton mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Tally Ho! beobachtet, die im Juli 2013 für GBP 4.375,00 (€ 4.999,20) versteigert wurde.
