Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The Mausolée des Jules at Saint-Rémy de Provence (illustrated); View near Aubagne, Provence; and A fountain at Aubagne by Robert Henry Cheney was sold in the WATERCOLOURS OF THE GRAND TOUR FROM A PRIVATE COLLECTION auction at Christies in London in October 2005. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 700.00 – 900.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 720.00 (€ 1,061.78) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by Robert Henry Cheney have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work A panoramic view of the Farnesina and the city of Rome in June 2002 with an auction result of GBP 4,182.50 (€ 6,469.38).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit The Mausolée des Jules at Saint-Rémy de Provence (illustrated); View near Aubagne, Provence; and A fountain at Aubagne von Robert Henry Cheney wurde im Oktober 2005 in der Auktion WATERCOLOURS OF THE GRAND TOUR FROM A PRIVATE COLLECTION bei Christies in London versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 700,00 – 900,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 720,00 (€ 1.061,78) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Robert Henry Cheney auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit A panoramic view of the Farnesina and the city of Rome im Juni 2002 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 4.182,50 (€ 6.469,38).
