Auction result misses estimated price range
In June 2005 a collector was able to acquire the work On The Nile At Dusk; And Cairo Street Scene by Spyridon Scarvelli for GBP 1,440.00 (€ 2,134.17). This price was achieved in the auction 19th Century European Art including Russian Pictures at Christies in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 1,500.00 – 2,000.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Spyridon Scarvelli achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Piraeus in May 2007 with an auction result of GBP 18,000.00 (€ 26,488.22).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Juni 2005 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit On The Nile At Dusk; And Cairo Street Scene von Spyridon Scarvelli für GBP 1.440,00 (€ 2.134,17) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion 19th Century European Art including Russian Pictures bei Christies in London erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 1.500,00 – 2.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Spyridon Scarvelli erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Piraeus im Mai 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 18.000,00 (€ 26.488,22).
