Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Arthur Fitzwilliam Tait achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in May last year. In the Stewards of the West: The Knobloch Collection auction, the work View on Long Lake sold for USD 126,000.00 (€ 117,416.83) - well above the upper estimate of USD 50,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Arthur Fitzwilliam Tait achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Check--Keep Your Distance in November 2007 with an auction result of USD 2,841,000.00 (€ 1,934,232.03).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Arthur Fitzwilliam Tait erzielte im Mai letzten Jahres bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Stewards of the West: The Knobloch Collection wurde die Arbeit View on Long Lake für USD 126.000,00 (€ 117.416,83) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 50.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Arthur Fitzwilliam Tait erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Check--Keep Your Distance im November 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 2.841.000,00 (€ 1.934.232,03).
