Auction result misses estimated price range
In November 2006 a collector was able to acquire the work The Great Eastern 'Leviathan', 12 November 1857 by Robert Howlett for GBP 1,800.00 (€ 2,673.06). This price was achieved in the auction Photographs at Christies in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 3,000.00 – 4,000.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Robert Howlett achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Isambard Kingdom Brunel By The Launching Chains Of The Great Eastern, 1857 in November 2007 with an auction result of GBP 34,100.00 (€ 47,748.82).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im November 2006 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit The Great Eastern 'Leviathan', 12 November 1857 von Robert Howlett für GBP 1.800,00 (€ 2.673,06) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Photographs bei Christies in London erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 3.000,00 – 4.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Robert Howlett erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Isambard Kingdom Brunel By The Launching Chains Of The Great Eastern, 1857 im November 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 34.100,00 (€ 47.748,82).
