Auction result misses estimated price range
In November last year a collector was able to acquire the work Portrait of Mrs. Richard Ray (née Elizabeth Lock, 1750-1815) by Thomas Hudson for USD 1,912.50 (€ 1,852.66). This price was achieved in the auction European Art at Bonhams in Skinner Marlborough, Massachusetts and was even below the estimate range of USD 2,500.00 – 3,500.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Thomas Hudson achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait of John and Robert, sons of Robert Ker, 2nd Duke of Roxburghe, in van Dyck costume with their two dogs, an extensive landscape beyond in October 2020 with an auction result of USD 450,000.00 (€ 386,365.59).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im November letzten Jahres konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Portrait of Mrs. Richard Ray (née Elizabeth Lock, 1750-1815) von Thomas Hudson für USD 1.912,50 (€ 1.852,66) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion European Art bei Bonhams in Skinner Marlborough, Massachusetts erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 2.500,00 – 3.500,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Thomas Hudson erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait of John and Robert, sons of Robert Ker, 2nd Duke of Roxburghe, in van Dyck costume with their two dogs, an extensive landscape beyond im Oktober 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 450.000,00 (€ 386.365,59).
