Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Bracken gathering on a windswept moor by Edward Duncan was auctioned at Christies in London in September 2008. The price achieved of GBP 400.00 (€ 505.76) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 300.00 – 500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Edward Duncan achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Tantallon Castle, Coast of Haddingtonshire in October 2000 with an auction result of GBP 15,275.00 (€ 26,109.34).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Bracken gathering on a windswept moor von Edward Duncan kam im September 2008 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 400,00 (€ 505,76) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 300,00 – 500,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Edward Duncan erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Tantallon Castle, Coast of Haddingtonshire im Oktober 2000 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 15.275,00 (€ 26.109,34).
