Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Trees at Twilight by Edward Robert Hughes was sold in the The Nicolette Wernick Collection British Watercolours and Paintings (1800-1950) auction at Christies in London in June 2010. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 6,000.00 – 10,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 6,250.00 (€ 7,600.58) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Edward Robert Hughes achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work British Dream Idyll (A Valkyrie) in October 2009 with an auction result of USD 866,500.00 (€ 587,258.56).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Trees at Twilight von Edward Robert Hughes wurde im Juni 2010 in der Auktion The Nicolette Wernick Collection British Watercolours and Paintings (1800-1950) bei Christies in London versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 6.000,00 – 10.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 6.250,00 (€ 7.600,58) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Edward Robert Hughes erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit British Dream Idyll (A Valkyrie) im Oktober 2009 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 866.500,00 (€ 587.258,56).
