Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Saucy Jack'S Scrap Book Of Drawings On Board The Yacht Amethyst by John Tenniel was sold in the British & Continental Watercolours including Original Book auction at Christies in London in December 2003. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 400.00 – 600.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 411.25 (€ 582.48) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Tenniel achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work ‘Nuts To Crack’ in March 2018 with an auction result of GBP 27,500.00 (€ 31,310.27).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Saucy Jack'S Scrap Book Of Drawings On Board The Yacht Amethyst von John Tenniel wurde im Dezember 2003 in der Auktion British & Continental Watercolours including Original Book bei Christies in London versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 400,00 – 600,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 411,25 (€ 582,48) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Tenniel erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit ‘Nuts To Crack’ im März 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 27.500,00 (€ 31.310,27).
