Auction result misses estimated price range

This work of art by Linnaeus Tripe could be acquired at Christies in London in September 2001 for an unexpectedly low price. In the 19C INDIAN PHOTOGRAPHS FROM THE KANWARDIP GUJRAL COLLECTION auction, the work Entrance to the Temple of Minakshi in the Great Pagoda changed hands for GBP 4,935.00 (€ 7,967.92) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 5,000.00 – 7,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Linnaeus Tripe achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Views of India, Indonesia and Myanmar (Burma), c. 1858 in September 2017 with an auction result of USD 107,500.00 (€ 91,001.44).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Dieses Kunstwerk von Linnaeus Tripe konnte im September 2001 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion 19C INDIAN PHOTOGRAPHS FROM THE KANWARDIP GUJRAL COLLECTION wechselte die Arbeit Entrance to the Temple of Minakshi in the Great Pagoda für GBP 4.935,00 (€ 7.967,92) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 5.000,00 – 7.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Linnaeus Tripe erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Views of India, Indonesia and Myanmar (Burma), c. 1858 im September 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 107.500,00 (€ 91.001,44).
