Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by John Bentham-Dinsdale could be acquired at Sothebys in London in December 2006 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Marine Art auction, the work The Taeping changed hands for GBP 1,140.00 (€ 1,691.90) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 3,000.00 – 4,000.00. Admittedly, works by John Bentham-Dinsdale have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work H.M.S. Crescent, under the command of Captain James Saumarez, capturing the French frigate Réunion off Cherbourg, 20 October 1793 in March 2017 with an auction result of GBP 8,125.00 (€ 9,521.70).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von John Bentham-Dinsdale konnte im Dezember 2006 bei Sothebys in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Marine Art wechselte die Arbeit The Taeping für GBP 1.140,00 (€ 1.691,90) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 3.000,00 – 4.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von John Bentham-Dinsdale auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit H.M.S. Crescent, under the command of Captain James Saumarez, capturing the French frigate Réunion off Cherbourg, 20 October 1793 im März 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 8.125,00 (€ 9.521,70).
