Sold at the lower estimate price
The work The Villa Conti, Frascati (illustrated); The Arch of Titus, Rome; and S. Francesco, Assisi by Thomas Hartley Cromek was auctioned at Christies in London in October 2005. The result of GBP 1,200.00 (€ 1,769.64) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 1,200.00 – 1,800.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Thomas Hartley Cromek achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Artist'S Wife Admiring The Skyline Of Florence With The Bargello, Badia, Forte Belvedere, Palazzo Vecchio, Duomo And Campanile, From A Roof Terrace On The Via Dei Servi in December 2007 with an auction result of GBP 14,900.00 (€ 20,246.57).

Die Arbeit The Villa Conti, Frascati (illustrated); The Arch of Titus, Rome; and S. Francesco, Assisi von Thomas Hartley Cromek kam im Oktober 2005 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 1.200,00 (€ 1.769,64) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 1.200,00 – 1.800,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Thomas Hartley Cromek erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Artist'S Wife Admiring The Skyline Of Florence With The Bargello, Badia, Forte Belvedere, Palazzo Vecchio, Duomo And Campanile, From A Roof Terrace On The Via Dei Servi im Dezember 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 14.900,00 (€ 20.246,57).
