Auction result misses estimated price range
In May 2004 a collector was able to acquire the work An English man-o'war leaving port by Samuel Atkins for GBP 597.50 (€ 896.47). This price was achieved in the auction Maritime Pictures at Christies in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 600.00 – 800.00 set by the auction house. Admittedly, works by Samuel Atkins have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Honourable East India Company's ships Devonshire, Woodford and Lord Duncan lying on the Thames off Blackwall (illustrated) ; View of Battersea; and View of Penny's Dockyard at Blackwall (illustrated) in November 2010 with an auction result of GBP 4,000.00 (€ 4,779.99).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Mai 2004 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit An English man-o'war leaving port von Samuel Atkins für GBP 597,50 (€ 896,47) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Maritime Pictures bei Christies in London erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 600,00 – 800,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Samuel Atkins auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit The Honourable East India Company's ships Devonshire, Woodford and Lord Duncan lying on the Thames off Blackwall (illustrated) ; View of Battersea; and View of Penny's Dockyard at Blackwall (illustrated) im November 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 4.000,00 (€ 4.779,99).
