Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Unknown by James Nixon was sold in the Kinross House, Scotland And Property Removed From The London Residence of Mrs. Winston Spencer Churchill auction at Christies in London in March 2011. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 800.00 – 1,200.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 812.50 (€ 919.34) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by James Nixon have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work A young gentleman, facing right in blue coat with black collar and gold buttons, yellow waistcoat and frilled cravat, powdered hair en queue in April 2002 with an auction result of GBP 4,935.00 (€ 7,984.70).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Unknown von James Nixon wurde im März 2011 in der Auktion Kinross House, Scotland And Property Removed From The London Residence of Mrs. Winston Spencer Churchill bei Christies in London versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 800,00 – 1.200,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 812,50 (€ 919,34) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von James Nixon auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit A young gentleman, facing right in blue coat with black collar and gold buttons, yellow waistcoat and frilled cravat, powdered hair en queue im April 2002 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 4.935,00 (€ 7.984,70).
