Despite a disappointment, a good price for Theodore J. Richardson

When the work Sitka, Alaska by Theodore J. Richardson was auctioned at Christies in London in October 2019, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 2,750.00 (€ 3,189.80). Despite this disappointing result, Sitka, Alaska is the most expensive artwork by Theodore J. Richardson that we have observed at auction so far.

Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Theodore J. Richardson

Als die Arbeit Sitka, Alaska von Theodore J. Richardson im Oktober 2019 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 2.750,00 (€ 3.189,80) den Besitzer. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist Sitka, Alaska das teuerste Kunstwerk von Theodore J. Richardson, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
