Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Portrait Of A Lady, Traditionally Identified As Lady Claypole, Née Cromwell by Samuel Cooper was sold in the Part I auction at Sothebys in London in December 2018. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 8,000.00 – 12,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 8,125.00 (€ 9,051.97) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Samuel Cooper achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A Gentleman Called John Campbell, Earl of Loudoun (1598-1663), In Gilt-Studded Armour, Large White Patterned Lawn Collar; Sky And Cloud Background in June 2007 with an auction result of GBP 66,000.00 (€ 97,940.68).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Portrait Of A Lady, Traditionally Identified As Lady Claypole, Née Cromwell von Samuel Cooper wurde im Dezember 2018 in der Auktion Part I bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 8.000,00 – 12.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 8.125,00 (€ 9.051,97) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Samuel Cooper erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A Gentleman Called John Campbell, Earl of Loudoun (1598-1663), In Gilt-Studded Armour, Large White Patterned Lawn Collar; Sky And Cloud Background im Juni 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 66.000,00 (€ 97.940,68).
