Auction result well in line with expectations
In December this year Bonhams in London held the auction Old Master Paintings, which included the work A three-panelled screen: Classical figures dancing by George Romney. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 70,000.00 – 100,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 76,600.00 (€ 88,240.26) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by George Romney achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait Of Edward Wortley Montagu (1713–1776) in July 2014 with an auction result of GBP 4,002,500.00 (€ 5,048,410.94).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Dezember diesen Jahres führte Bonhams in London die Auktion Old Master Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit A three-panelled screen: Classical figures dancing von George Romney zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 70.000,00 – 100.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 76.600,00 (€ 88.240,26) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von George Romney erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait Of Edward Wortley Montagu (1713–1776) im Juli 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 4.002.500,00 (€ 5.048.410,94).
