CHARLES ROBERTSON (IRISH, 1759-1821)

on ivory
oval, 2½ in. (64 mm.) high, gilt-metal frame with glazed and silk reverse

Auction result misses estimated price range

In May 2012 a collector was able to acquire the work Sophia Stert, in white dress with white bandeau in her powdered hair worn loose; Windor Castle in the distance by Charles Robertson for GBP 625.00 (€ 778.72). This price was achieved in the auction Centuries of Style: Silver, European Ceramics, Portrait Miniatures and Gold Boxes at Christies in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 700.00 – 900.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Charles Robertson achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A Carpet Seller, Cairo in October 2019 with an auction result of GBP 663,000.00 (€ 769,032.45).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Im Mai 2012 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Sophia Stert, in white dress with white bandeau in her powdered hair worn loose; Windor Castle in the distance von Charles Robertson für GBP 625,00 (€ 778,72) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Centuries of Style: Silver, European Ceramics, Portrait Miniatures and Gold Boxes bei Christies in London erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 700,00 – 900,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Charles Robertson erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A Carpet Seller, Cairo im Oktober 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 663.000,00 (€ 769.032,45).
