Auction result well in line with expectations
The work An Extensive View of London From St Paul'S Cathedral, Looking West by Thomas Allom was auctioned at Christies in London in June 2006. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 4,080.00 (€ 5,903.69) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Thomas Allom achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Sack of Corinth in May 2012 with an auction result of GBP 51,650.00 (€ 64,353.63).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit An Extensive View of London From St Paul'S Cathedral, Looking West von Thomas Allom kam im Juni 2006 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 4.080,00 (€ 5.903,69) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Thomas Allom erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Sack of Corinth im Mai 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 51.650,00 (€ 64.353,63).
