The work The Skylark (A. 2) by Samuel Palmer was auctioned at Sothebys in London in February 2019. It achieved a price of GBP 1,625.00 (€ 1,895.62), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 35%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Samuel Palmer achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A Shepherd leading his flock under the full moon in July 2021 with an auction result of GBP 1,588,000.00 (€ 1,862,259.27).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 35 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit The Skylark (A. 2) von Samuel Palmer kam im Februar 2019 bei Sothebys in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 1.625,00 (€ 1.895,62) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 35%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Samuel Palmer erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A Shepherd leading his flock under the full moon im Juli 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 1.588.000,00 (€ 1.862.259,27).
