Upper estimate price exceeded by 42 %.
The work Study for St Patrick's Purgatory, Lough Derg by John Lavery was sold in the Irish Art auction at Sothebys in London in November 2021. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 113,400.00 (€ 133,142.27), 42% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Lavery achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Terrace, Cap d'Ail in July 2021 with an auction result of GBP 1,162,500.00 (€ 1,363,272.29).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 42 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Study for St Patrick's Purgatory, Lough Derg von John Lavery wurde im November 2021 in der Auktion Irish Art bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 113.400,00 (€ 133.142,27) und damit 42% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Lavery erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Terrace, Cap d'Ail im Juli 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 1.162.500,00 (€ 1.363.272,29).
