Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The Return Of Tibullus To Delia by Dante Gabriel Rossetti was auctioned at Sothebys in London in July 2018. The price achieved of GBP 50,000.00 (€ 56,060.99) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 40,000.00 – 60,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Dante Gabriel Rossetti achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Pandora in May 2014 with an auction result of GBP 5,346,500.00 (€ 6,571,020.97).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit The Return Of Tibullus To Delia von Dante Gabriel Rossetti kam im Juli 2018 bei Sothebys in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 50.000,00 (€ 56.060,99) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 40.000,00 – 60.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Dante Gabriel Rossetti erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Pandora im Mai 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 5.346.500,00 (€ 6.571.020,97).
