In December 2014 Christies in London held the auction Victorian, Pre-Raphaelite & British Impressionist Art, which included the work Entrance To The Grand Canal, Venice by Edward Seago. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 52,500.00 (€ 67,584.91), 31% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Edward Seago - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Household Cavalry in the Mall, which sold at auction in July 2018 for GBP 175,000.00 (€ 196,213.48).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 31 % übertroffen
Im Dezember 2014 führte Christies in London die Auktion Victorian, Pre-Raphaelite & British Impressionist Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Entrance To The Grand Canal, Venice von Edward Seago zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 52.500,00 (€ 67.584,91) und damit 31% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Edward Seago mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Household Cavalry in the Mall beobachtet, die im Juli 2018 für GBP 175.000,00 (€ 196.213,48) versteigert wurde.
