Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Portrait of a lady, thought to be the daughter of Samuel Greenwood, bust-length, profile, wearing red earrings by Thomas Binney Gibbs was auctioned at Christies in London in October 2003, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 300.00 – 500.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 293.75 (€ 429.05). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Thomas Binney Gibbs - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Portrait of a young boy, half-length, in a blue coat and white shirt, which sold at auction in September 2006 for GBP 600.00 (€ 885.13).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Portrait of a lady, thought to be the daughter of Samuel Greenwood, bust-length, profile, wearing red earrings von Thomas Binney Gibbs im Oktober 2003 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 300,00 – 500,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 293,75 (€ 429,05) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Thomas Binney Gibbs mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Portrait of a young boy, half-length, in a blue coat and white shirt beobachtet, die im September 2006 für GBP 600,00 (€ 885,13) versteigert wurde.
