Auction result well in line with expectations
In December 2011 Christies in London held the auction Sporting & Wildlife Art, Including An Important Private Collection of works by Wilhelm Kuhnert and David Shepherd, which included the work Wildfowl in the broad, Somerton by Colin W. Burns. The price achieved of GBP 1,625.00 (€ 1,946.17) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 1,200.00 – 1,800.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Colin W. Burns achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Woodcock And Pheasant Driven Of The Covert, Thetford, Norfolk in June 2001 with an auction result of USD 35,250.00 (€ 41,597.83).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Dezember 2011 führte Christies in London die Auktion Sporting & Wildlife Art, Including An Important Private Collection of works by Wilhelm Kuhnert and David Shepherd durch, in der auch die Arbeit Wildfowl in the broad, Somerton von Colin W. Burns zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 1.625,00 (€ 1.946,17) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 1.200,00 – 1.800,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Colin W. Burns erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Woodcock And Pheasant Driven Of The Covert, Thetford, Norfolk im Juni 2001 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 35.250,00 (€ 41.597,83).
