Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A modern Laocoon, an incident on the field of Waterloo by George Denholm Armour was auctioned at Christies in London in November 2002. The price achieved of GBP 587.50 (€ 919.99) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 500.00 – 700.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by George Denholm Armour achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Lion and Lioness at Rest in October 2008 with an auction result of USD 30,000.00 (€ 23,655.57).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit A modern Laocoon, an incident on the field of Waterloo von George Denholm Armour kam im November 2002 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 587,50 (€ 919,99) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 500,00 – 700,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von George Denholm Armour erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Lion and Lioness at Rest im Oktober 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 30.000,00 (€ 23.655,57).
