Auction result well in line with expectations
In November 2017 Christies in London held the auction Modern/British Art Online, which included the work Seated girl by Ralph Brown. The price achieved of GBP 2,000.00 (€ 2,270.30) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 1,500.00 – 2,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ralph Brown achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached 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 November 2017 führte Christies in London die Auktion Modern/British Art Online durch, in der auch die Arbeit Seated girl von Ralph Brown zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 2.000,00 (€ 2.270,30) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 1.500,00 – 2.500,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Ralph Brown erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Girl Sitting On A Wall im November 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 38.400,00 (€ 56.414,45).
