Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Frederic William Burton could be acquired at Christies in London in May 2000 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Irish Pictures auction, the work The Wife of Hassan Aga changed hands for GBP 58,750.00 (€ 94,272.08) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 60,000.00 – 80,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Frederic William Burton - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Child Miranda 'The isle is full of noises, Sounds, and sweet airs, that give delight, and hurt not'- Tempest, which sold at auction in June 2004 for GBP 206,850.00 (€ 307,854.76).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Frederic William Burton konnte im Mai 2000 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Irish Pictures wechselte die Arbeit The Wife of Hassan Aga für GBP 58.750,00 (€ 94.272,08) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 60.000,00 – 80.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Frederic William Burton mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Child Miranda 'The isle is full of noises, Sounds, and sweet airs, that give delight, and hurt not'- Tempest beobachtet, die im Juni 2004 für GBP 206.850,00 (€ 307.854,76) versteigert wurde.
