Sold at the lower estimate price
In May 2020 Sothebys in London held the auction Old Masters including Portrait Miniatures from the Pohl-Ströher Collection, which included the work Portrait Of Mrs Maria Anne Penrudokke, Three-Quarter-Length, In A White Dress And Blue Sash, Seated In A Library, Holding A Book by Thomas Beach. The result of GBP 3,000.00 (€ 3,330.33) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 3,000.00 – 4,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Thomas Beach achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Four portraits of the children of William and Elizabeth Helyar: Joanna, aged 8; Harriet, aged 11; Edward, aged 18; and Bridget, aged 13 in December 2018 with an auction result of GBP 32,500.00 (€ 36,207.88).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Im Mai 2020 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Old Masters including Portrait Miniatures from the Pohl-Ströher Collection durch, in der auch die Arbeit Portrait Of Mrs Maria Anne Penrudokke, Three-Quarter-Length, In A White Dress And Blue Sash, Seated In A Library, Holding A Book von Thomas Beach zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 3.000,00 (€ 3.330,33) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 3.000,00 – 4.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Thomas Beach erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Four portraits of the children of William and Elizabeth Helyar: Joanna, aged 8; Harriet, aged 11; Edward, aged 18; and Bridget, aged 13 im Dezember 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 32.500,00 (€ 36.207,88).
