A top price for Samuel Gillespie Prout - as previously expected
In April 2003 Christies in London held the auction At Home - British and Continental Pictures & Works on Paper, which included the work A courtyard scene, France by Samuel Gillespie Prout. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 700.00 – 1,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 763.75 (€ 995.11) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, A courtyard scene, France is the most expensive artwork by Samuel Gillespie Prout that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im April 2003 führte Christies in London die Auktion At Home - British and Continental Pictures & Works on Paper durch, in der auch die Arbeit A courtyard scene, France von Samuel Gillespie Prout zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 700,00 – 1.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 763,75 (€ 995,11) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist A courtyard scene, France das teuerste Kunstwerk von Samuel Gillespie Prout, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
