A top price for Robert Dighton - as previously expected
In July 2013 Sothebys in London held the auction Old Master & British Drawings including French Masterworks from the Dormeuil Collection, which included the work Tally Ho! by Robert Dighton. The price achieved of GBP 4,375.00 (€ 4,999.20) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Tally Ho! is the most expensive artwork by Robert Dighton that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im Juli 2013 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Old Master & British Drawings including French Masterworks from the Dormeuil Collection durch, in der auch die Arbeit Tally Ho! von Robert Dighton zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 4.375,00 (€ 4.999,20) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Tally Ho! das teuerste Kunstwerk von Robert Dighton, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
