Auction result misses estimated price range
In May last year a collector was able to acquire the work A collection of 88 pencil drawings of Egyptian landscapes, river views and artefacts including: Dendera; The Gate of the Nile; Philae; Gebel El Silsilah; Gebel Aboofayeda; Keneh; Bibbeh; Views and architectural studies of Venice and figure studies an by Edward William Cooke for GBP 7,000.00 (€ 8,234.83). This price was achieved in the auction The Collection of Sir Nicholas Goodison - British Art: Innovation and Craftsmanship at Ch Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Edward William Cooke achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Bella Venezia in November 2006 with an auction result of GBP 209,600.00 (€ 311,262.56).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Mai letzten Jahres konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit A collection of 88 pencil drawings of Egyptian landscapes, river views and artefacts including: Dendera; The Gate of the Nile; Philae; Gebel El Silsilah; Gebel Aboofayeda; Keneh; Bibbeh; Views and architectural studies of Venice and figure studies an von Edward William Cooke für GBP 7.000,00 (€ 8.234,83) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion The Collection of Sir Nicholas Goodison - British Art: Innovation and Craftsmanship bei Christies in London erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 12.000,00 – 18.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Edward William Cooke erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Bella Venezia im November 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 209.600,00 (€ 311.262,56).
