Auction result misses estimated price range

In September 2001 a collector was able to acquire the work Garden at Secundra (Sikandra) by John Murray for GBP 646.25 (€ 1,043.42). This price was achieved in the auction 19C INDIAN PHOTOGRAPHS FROM THE KANWARDIP GUJRAL COLLECTION 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 John Murray achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Pavillion and Mosque Attached to the Taj in October 2017 with an auction result of USD 30,000.00 (€ 25,755.49).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Im September 2001 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Garden at Secundra (Sikandra) von John Murray für GBP 646,25 (€ 1.043,42) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion 19C INDIAN PHOTOGRAPHS FROM THE KANWARDIP GUJRAL COLLECTION 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 John Murray erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Pavillion and Mosque Attached to the Taj im Oktober 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 30.000,00 (€ 25.755,49).
