Upper estimate price exceeded by 37 %.
The work "A plague on these machine-age poets" by Frederick Rowland Emett was auctioned at Christies in London in December 2000. It achieved a price of GBP 822.50 (€ 1,310.24), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 37%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Frederick Rowland Emett achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Shell X100 By-Plane in November 2006 with an auction result of GBP 12,000.00 (€ 17,820.38).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 37 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit "A plague on these machine-age poets" von Frederick Rowland Emett kam im Dezember 2000 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 822,50 (€ 1.310,24) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 37%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Frederick Rowland Emett erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Shell X100 By-Plane im November 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 12.000,00 (€ 17.820,38).
