Auction result well in line with expectations
In July last year Sothebys in London held the auction European & British Art, Part I, which included the work Spring Pasture near Bernau in the Black Forest by Hans Thoma. The price achieved of GBP 37,800.00 (€ 45,139.91) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 30,000.00 – 50,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Hans Thoma - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Blick auf Mamolsheim, which sold at auction in December 2010 for GBP 139,250.00 (€ 161,529.58).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juli letzten Jahres führte Sothebys in London die Auktion European & British Art, Part I durch, in der auch die Arbeit Spring Pasture near Bernau in the Black Forest von Hans Thoma zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 37.800,00 (€ 45.139,91) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 30.000,00 – 50.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Hans Thoma mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Blick auf Mamolsheim beobachtet, die im Dezember 2010 für GBP 139.250,00 (€ 161.529,58) versteigert wurde.
