Auction result well in line with expectations
In October 2006 Christies in New York held the auction The House Sale, which included the work Portrait of a military commander holding a baton, three-quarter-length, in armor by Thomas Murray. The price achieved of USD 7,200.00 (€ 5,636.89) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 6,000.00 – 8,000.00. Admittedly, works by Thomas Murray have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Portrait of Anne, Lady Trevor, Three-Quarter-Length, In A Pink Dress With Blue Cloak, Her Right Hand Resting On A King Charles Spaniel, Honeysuckle To Her Left, A Wooded River Landscape With A Castle Beyond in June 2005 with an auction result of GBP 18,600.00 (€ 27,566.37).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Oktober 2006 führte Christies in New York die Auktion The House Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Portrait of a military commander holding a baton, three-quarter-length, in armor von Thomas Murray zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 7.200,00 (€ 5.636,89) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 6.000,00 – 8.000,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Thomas Murray auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Portrait of Anne, Lady Trevor, Three-Quarter-Length, In A Pink Dress With Blue Cloak, Her Right Hand Resting On A King Charles Spaniel, Honeysuckle To Her Left, A Wooded River Landscape With A Castle Beyond im Juni 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 18.600,00 (€ 27.566,37).
