Samuel Phillips Jackson (1830-1904)
An East Indiaman undergoing a refit
pencil and watercolour heightened with white
11½ x 17 in. (29.3 x 43.3 cm.)

Upper estimate price exceeded by 40 %.

In May 2005 Christies in London held the auction MARITIME PICTURES, which included the work An East Indiaman undergoing a refit by Samuel Phillips Jackson. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 840.00 (€ 1,240.10), 40% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Samuel Phillips Jackson have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Conway Harbour At Low Tide, Wales in June 2007 with an auction result of GBP 3,600.00 (€ 5,342.22).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 40 % übertroffen

Im Mai 2005 führte Christies in London die Auktion MARITIME PICTURES durch, in der auch die Arbeit An East Indiaman undergoing a refit von Samuel Phillips Jackson zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 840,00 (€ 1.240,10) und damit 40% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Samuel Phillips Jackson auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Conway Harbour At Low Tide, Wales im Juni 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 3.600,00 (€ 5.342,22).
