THOMAS SHOTTER BOYS, R.W.S. (1803-1874)
Rathaus from Old Town Square, Prague
signed, inscribed and dated 'PRAGUE / ThoS Boys. 1859.' (lower right)

32 1⁄4 x 24 1⁄8 in. (82 x 61.4 cm.)

Auction result misses estimated price range

This work of art by Thomas Shotter Boys could be acquired at Christies in London in May last year for an unexpectedly low price. In the The Collection of Sir Nicholas Goodison - British Art: Innovation and Craftsmanship auction, the work Rathaus from Old Town Square, Prague changed hands for GBP 11,000.00 (€ 12,940.45) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Thomas Shotter Boys - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Le Pavillon de Flore, Tuileries, Paris, which sold at auction in December 2010 for GBP 43,250.00 (€ 50,169.87).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Dieses Kunstwerk von Thomas Shotter Boys konnte im Mai letzten Jahres bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion The Collection of Sir Nicholas Goodison - British Art: Innovation and Craftsmanship wechselte die Arbeit Rathaus from Old Town Square, Prague für GBP 11.000,00 (€ 12.940,45) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 20.000,00 – 30.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Thomas Shotter Boys mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Le Pavillon de Flore, Tuileries, Paris beobachtet, die im Dezember 2010 für GBP 43.250,00 (€ 50.169,87) versteigert wurde.
