Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Twist-tailed Skua by Archibald Thorburn was auctioned at Bonhams in New York in September this year. The price achieved of GBP 3,584.00 (€ 3,584.00) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Archibald Thorburn achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Grouse in flight in June 2010 with an auction result of GBP 217,250.00 (€ 264,196.22).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Twist-tailed Skua von Archibald Thorburn kam im September diesen Jahres bei Bonhams in New York zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 3.584,00 (€ 3.584,00) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Archibald Thorburn erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Grouse in flight im Juni 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 217.250,00 (€ 264.196,22).
