Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Portrait Of Sir Charles Morgan, 2Nd Bt., Three-Quarter-Length, In A Brown Coat And Buff Breeches, Seated In An Armchair By A Draped Red Curtain by William Owen was auctioned at Christies in London in November 2004. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 8,000.00 – 12,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 8,365.00 (€ 12,033.01) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by William Owen 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 Ernest Augustus I (1771-1851), Duke of Cumberland and later King of Hanover (1837-1851), full-length, in the uniform of a British General Officer of Hussars, with the blue sash and breast star of the Order of the Garter in October 2015 with an auction result of GBP 62,500.00 (€ 87,421.89).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Portrait Of Sir Charles Morgan, 2Nd Bt., Three-Quarter-Length, In A Brown Coat And Buff Breeches, Seated In An Armchair By A Draped Red Curtain von William Owen kam im November 2004 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 8.000,00 – 12.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 8.365,00 (€ 12.033,01) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von William Owen auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Portrait of Ernest Augustus I (1771-1851), Duke of Cumberland and later King of Hanover (1837-1851), full-length, in the uniform of a British General Officer of Hussars, with the blue sash and breast star of the Order of the Garter im Oktober 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 62.500,00 (€ 87.421,89).
