Sold at the lower estimate price
In November 2008 Christies in London held the auction Christie's Interiors, which included the work Valsheda storming past Amarna and Braemar Castle by John J. Holmes. The result of GBP 1,000.00 (€ 1,209.08) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 1,000.00 – 1,500.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by John J. Holmes - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Astra, Candida and Shamrock (V) racing off Cowes, 1934, which sold at auction in May 2007 for GBP 2,880.00 (€ 4,238.11).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Im November 2008 führte Christies in London die Auktion Christie's Interiors durch, in der auch die Arbeit Valsheda storming past Amarna and Braemar Castle von John J. Holmes zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 1.000,00 (€ 1.209,08) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 1.000,00 – 1.500,00. Für andere Arbeiten von John J. Holmes mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Astra, Candida and Shamrock (V) racing off Cowes, 1934 beobachtet, die im Mai 2007 für GBP 2.880,00 (€ 4.238,11) versteigert wurde.
