Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Samuel Cooper could be acquired at Sothebys in London in July 2017 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Old Master & British Works on Paper auction, the work Portrait Of Sir William Fairfax (1609-1644) changed hands for GBP 6,875.00 (€ 7,671.44) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 8,000.00 – 12,000.00. 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 verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Samuel Cooper konnte im Juli 2017 bei Sothebys in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Old Master & British Works on Paper wechselte die Arbeit Portrait Of Sir William Fairfax (1609-1644) für GBP 6.875,00 (€ 7.671,44) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 8.000,00 – 12.000,00. 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).
