Auction result misses estimated price range
In February 2021 a collector was able to acquire the work 'Church & Convent of St. Mary'; 'Caravansera at Kustchiuk-Czemege'; 'Fountain of Serpents'; and 5 further views hand-coloured aquatints, each with accompanying leaf of letterpress description, each published by W. Watts, 1801-1803 (8) by Luigi Mayer for GBP 255.00 (€ 294.09). This price was achieved in the auction Travel & Exploration at Bonhams in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 400.00 – 600.00 set by the au Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Luigi Mayer achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work View of the port and the city of Constantinople, from Leander's Tower in June 2010 with an auction result of GBP 73,250.00 (€ 89,078.82).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Februar 2021 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit 'Church & Convent of St. Mary'; 'Caravansera at Kustchiuk-Czemege'; 'Fountain of Serpents'; and 5 further views hand-coloured aquatints, each with accompanying leaf of letterpress description, each published by W. Watts, 1801-1803 (8) von Luigi Mayer für GBP 255,00 (€ 294,09) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Travel & Exploration bei Bonhams in London erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 400,00 – 600,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Luigi Mayer erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit View of the port and the city of Constantinople, from Leander's Tower im Juni 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 73.250,00 (€ 89.078,82).
