Auction result well in line with expectations
In March 2020 Sothebys in London held the auction Made in Britain, which included the work Mother And Child by Ralph Brown. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 5,000.00 – 8,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 5,625.00 (€ 6,351.78) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by Ralph Brown have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Girl Sitting On A Wall in November 2005 with an auction result of GBP 38,400.00 (€ 56,414.45).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im März 2020 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Made in Britain durch, in der auch die Arbeit Mother And Child von Ralph Brown zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 5.000,00 – 8.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 5.625,00 (€ 6.351,78) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Ralph Brown auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Girl Sitting On A Wall im November 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 38.400,00 (€ 56.414,45).
