Despite a disappointment, a good price for Ernest Crofts
This work of art by Ernest Crofts could be acquired at Christies in London in February 2003 for an unexpectedly low price. In the THE FORBES COLLECTION OF VICTORIAN PICTURES AND WORKS OF ART auction, the work Whitehall: January 30th, 1649 changed hands for GBP 47,800.00 (€ 69,786.49) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 50,000.00 – 80,000.00. Despite this disappointing result, Whitehall: January 30th, 1649 is the most expensive artwork by Ernest Crofts that we have observed at auction so far.
Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Ernest Crofts
Dieses Kunstwerk von Ernest Crofts konnte im Februar 2003 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion THE FORBES COLLECTION OF VICTORIAN PICTURES AND WORKS OF ART wechselte die Arbeit Whitehall: January 30th, 1649 für GBP 47.800,00 (€ 69.786,49) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 50.000,00 – 80.000,00. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist Whitehall: January 30th, 1649 das teuerste Kunstwerk von Ernest Crofts, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
