Auction result well in line with expectations
In February 2009 Christies in London held the auction Victorian & Traditionalist Art, which included the work Portrait of Adelina Patti (1843-1919), fixing a ribbon in her hair by James Sant. The price achieved of GBP 5,000.00 (€ 5,637.34) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by James Sant achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait of the Misses Wilson of Tranby Croft, full-lengths, one standing, in pale blue satin dresses, in a garden in November 2002 with an auction result of GBP 77,675.00 (€ 121,635.05).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Februar 2009 führte Christies in London die Auktion Victorian & Traditionalist Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Portrait of Adelina Patti (1843-1919), fixing a ribbon in her hair von James Sant zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 5.000,00 (€ 5.637,34) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von James Sant erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait of the Misses Wilson of Tranby Croft, full-lengths, one standing, in pale blue satin dresses, in a garden im November 2002 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 77.675,00 (€ 121.635,05).
