Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In November 2009 Christies in London held the auction Victorian and British Impressionist Pictures including Drawings and Watercolours, which included the work The water carrier by Tom Clough. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 1,200.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 1,250.00 (€ 1,367.96). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Tom Clough - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Monarchs of the Beechwood, which sold at auction in June 2010 for GBP 4,375.00 (€ 5,320.41).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im November 2009 führte Christies in London die Auktion Victorian and British Impressionist Pictures including Drawings and Watercolours durch, in der auch die Arbeit The water carrier von Tom Clough zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 1.200,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 1.250,00 (€ 1.367,96) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Tom Clough mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Monarchs of the Beechwood beobachtet, die im Juni 2010 für GBP 4.375,00 (€ 5.320,41) versteigert wurde.
