Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Shipping on an estuary by Edward Duncan was sold in the Christie's Interiors auction at Christies in London in June 2008. The price achieved of GBP 625.00 (€ 790.02) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 500.00 – 700.00. 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 Shipping on an estuary von Edward Duncan wurde im Juni 2008 in der Auktion Christie's Interiors bei Christies in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 625,00 (€ 790,02) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 500,00 – 700,00 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).
