Auction result well in line with expectations
The work An officer, in red coat with buff facings and white epaulettes, white cravat and black stock, powdered hair by Samuel Cotes was auctioned at Christies in London in May 2004. The price achieved of GBP 717.00 (€ 1,075.76) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 600.00 – 800.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Samuel Cotes achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A boy, in pink-lined sea-green coat and waistcoat, lace-bordered white shirt, black hat adorned with black-lined pink ribbon and bow in his curling fair hair in December 2003 with an auction result of GBP 19,120.00 (€ 27,080.97).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit An officer, in red coat with buff facings and white epaulettes, white cravat and black stock, powdered hair von Samuel Cotes kam im Mai 2004 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 717,00 (€ 1.075,76) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 600,00 – 800,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Samuel Cotes erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A boy, in pink-lined sea-green coat and waistcoat, lace-bordered white shirt, black hat adorned with black-lined pink ribbon and bow in his curling fair hair im Dezember 2003 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 19.120,00 (€ 27.080,97).
