Auction result misses estimated price range
In December 2005 a collector was able to acquire the work 'The magazine addicts' by Sue Macartney-Snape for GBP 360.00 (€ 522.52). This price was achieved in the auction British and Continental Watercolours and Oriental at Christies in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 400.00 – 600.00 set by the auction house. Admittedly, works by Sue Macartney-Snape have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Sunday morning in the shires in December 2004 with an auction result of GBP 3,346.00 (€ 4,735.51).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Dezember 2005 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit 'The magazine addicts' von Sue Macartney-Snape für GBP 360,00 (€ 522,52) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion British and Continental Watercolours and Oriental bei Christies in London erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 400,00 – 600,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Sue Macartney-Snape auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Sunday morning in the shires im Dezember 2004 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 3.346,00 (€ 4.735,51).
