Auction result well in line with expectations
The work 'Wish clouded cave and broider dreams and very artful ways' by John Arthur Lomax was sold in the British and Victorian including Scottish Paintings auction at Christies in London in March 2004. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 3,226.50 (€ 4,829.78) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by John Arthur Lomax - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work In Doubt, which sold at auction in June 2000 for GBP 10,575.00 (€ 16,762.68).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit 'Wish clouded cave and broider dreams and very artful ways' von John Arthur Lomax wurde im März 2004 in der Auktion British and Victorian including Scottish Paintings bei Christies in London versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 3.226,50 (€ 4.829,78) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von John Arthur Lomax mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit In Doubt beobachtet, die im Juni 2000 für GBP 10.575,00 (€ 16.762,68) versteigert wurde.
