Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Portrait of Polly by John Perceval was auctioned at Christies in Melbourne in April 2006. The price achieved of AUD 23,900.00 (€ 14,375.21) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as AUD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Perceval achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Australian Ship'S Graveyard in November 2007 with an auction result of AUD 468,000.00 (€ 281,921.57).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Portrait of Polly von John Perceval kam im April 2006 bei Christies in Melbourne zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von AUD 23.900,00 (€ 14.375,21) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit AUD 20.000,00 – 30.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Perceval erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Australian Ship'S Graveyard im November 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von AUD 468.000,00 (€ 281.921,57).
