Auction result well in line with expectations
In December 2004 Christies in London held the auction British and Continental Watercolours including Original Book, which included the work Batson Creek, Salcombe (illustrated); and Salcombe by Roland Batchelor. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 800.00 – 1,200.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 836.50 (€ 1,183.88) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Roland Batchelor - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Wine Connoisseur, which sold at auction in September 2004 for GBP 2,031.50 (€ 2,959.64).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Dezember 2004 führte Christies in London die Auktion British and Continental Watercolours including Original Book durch, in der auch die Arbeit Batson Creek, Salcombe (illustrated); and Salcombe von Roland Batchelor zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 800,00 – 1.200,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 836,50 (€ 1.183,88) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Roland Batchelor mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Wine Connoisseur beobachtet, die im September 2004 für GBP 2.031,50 (€ 2.959,64) versteigert wurde.
