Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Thomas Danby could be acquired at Christies in London in May 2001 for an unexpectedly low price. In the THE PROPERTY OF THE LATE N. SINCLAIR, ESQ. auction, the work A river landscape with a mountain peak beyond changed hands for GBP 235.00 (€ 393.98) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 300.00 – 500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Thomas Danby achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Chàteau de Chillon, Lake Geneva, and View of Lake Geneva in June 2002 with an auction result of GBP 10,157.50 (€ 15,711.35).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Thomas Danby konnte im Mai 2001 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion THE PROPERTY OF THE LATE N. SINCLAIR, ESQ. wechselte die Arbeit A river landscape with a mountain peak beyond für GBP 235,00 (€ 393,98) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 300,00 – 500,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Thomas Danby erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Chàteau de Chillon, Lake Geneva, and View of Lake Geneva im Juni 2002 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 10.157,50 (€ 15.711,35).
