Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Catanzaro, Calabria, Italy by Thomas Miles Richardson Jnr. was sold in the Old Master & Early British Drawings & Watercolours auction at Christies in London in December 2012. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 5,000.00 – 8,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 5,625.00 (€ 6,937.19) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Thomas Miles Richardson Jnr. - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Foot of Loch Katrine, Perthshire, which sold at auction in October 2002 for GBP 8,962.50 (€ 14,177.09).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Catanzaro, Calabria, Italy von Thomas Miles Richardson Jnr. wurde im Dezember 2012 in der Auktion Old Master & Early British Drawings & Watercolours bei Christies in London versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 5.000,00 – 8.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 5.625,00 (€ 6.937,19) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Thomas Miles Richardson Jnr. mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Foot of Loch Katrine, Perthshire beobachtet, die im Oktober 2002 für GBP 8.962,50 (€ 14.177,09) versteigert wurde.
