Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Thomas Lawrence could be acquired at Sothebys in London in May 2020 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Refining Taste: Works Selected by Danny Katz auction, the work The Beautiful Washerwoman changed hands for GBP 15,000.00 (€ 16,651.65) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Thomas Lawrence achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait of Arthur Wellesley, 1St Duke of Wellington, K.G., K.B., M.P. (1769-1852), Bust-Length, In Civilian Clothes With A Military Cloak, Wearing The Insignia of The Order of The Golden Fleece in November 2006 with an auction result of GBP 2,080,000.00 (€ 3,088,865.09).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Thomas Lawrence konnte im Mai 2020 bei Sothebys in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Refining Taste: Works Selected by Danny Katz wechselte die Arbeit The Beautiful Washerwoman für GBP 15.000,00 (€ 16.651,65) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 20.000,00 – 30.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Thomas Lawrence erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait of Arthur Wellesley, 1St Duke of Wellington, K.G., K.B., M.P. (1769-1852), Bust-Length, In Civilian Clothes With A Military Cloak, Wearing The Insignia of The Order of The Golden Fleece im November 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 2.080.000,00 (€ 3.088.865,09).
