Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work The Mason Family Album, 1794-1862 by John Constable was sold in the Old Master and British Works on Paper, including Portrait Miniatures from the Pohl-Ströher Collection auction at Sothebys in London in December 2020. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 28,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 30,240.00 (€ 33,780.78). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Constable achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work View on the Stour near Dedham, full-scale sketch in June 2016 with an auction result of GBP 14,082,500.00 (€ 16,903,595.45).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit The Mason Family Album, 1794-1862 von John Constable wurde im Dezember 2020 in der Auktion Old Master and British Works on Paper, including Portrait Miniatures from the Pohl-Ströher Collection bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 28.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 30.240,00 (€ 33.780,78) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Constable erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit View on the Stour near Dedham, full-scale sketch im Juni 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 14.082.500,00 (€ 16.903.595,45).
