Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Timber dwelling between Kiev and Moscow, 1852 by Roger Fenton was auctioned at Christies in London in May 2010. The price achieved of GBP 2,500.00 (€ 2,929.10) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Roger Fenton achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work 'The Valley Of The Shadow Of Death' in April 2008 with an auction result of USD 157,000.00 (€ 100,847.89).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Timber dwelling between Kiev and Moscow, 1852 von Roger Fenton kam im Mai 2010 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 2.500,00 (€ 2.929,10) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Roger Fenton erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit 'The Valley Of The Shadow Of Death' im April 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 157.000,00 (€ 100.847,89).
