Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Tree study by John Murray was auctioned at Christies in London in September 2001. The price achieved of GBP 940.00 (€ 1,517.70) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 800.00 – 1,200.00. 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 im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Tree study von John Murray kam im September 2001 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 940,00 (€ 1.517,70) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 800,00 – 1.200,00 angegeben worden. 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).
