In December 2003 Christies in New York held the auction Sporting Art, which included the work An English And A Gordon Setter With The Day'S Bag On A Moor by John Gifford. The »bidding war« ended at USD 19,120.00 (€ 15,178.22), 27% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by John Gifford - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Day's Bag, which sold at auction in January 2002 for USD 35,250.00 (€ 41,016.99).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 27 % übertroffen
Im Dezember 2003 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Sporting Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit An English And A Gordon Setter With The Day'S Bag On A Moor von John Gifford zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 19.120,00 (€ 15.178,22) und damit 27% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von John Gifford mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Day's Bag beobachtet, die im Januar 2002 für USD 35.250,00 (€ 41.016,99) versteigert wurde.
