A top price for George Baxter - as previously expected
The work Gems of The Crystal Palace, Sydenham (The Exterior) by George Baxter was auctioned at Christies in London in March 2006. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 400.00 – 600.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 420.00 (€ 601.78) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Gems of The Crystal Palace, Sydenham (The Exterior) is the most expensive artwork by George Baxter that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit Gems of The Crystal Palace, Sydenham (The Exterior) von George Baxter kam im März 2006 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 400,00 – 600,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 420,00 (€ 601,78) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Gems of The Crystal Palace, Sydenham (The Exterior) das teuerste Kunstwerk von George Baxter, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
