Upper estimate price exceeded by 63 %.
The work Florinda and Gwyndoline racing off the Nab lightship by Arthur Wellington Fowles was sold in the Maritime & Naval Battles (Pictures) auction at Christies in London in May 2007. It achieved a price of GBP 1,140.00 (€ 1,677.59), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 63%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Arthur Wellington Fowles achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Indian troopship Serapis arriving at Portsmouth, 11 May 1876, with H.R.H. The Prince of Wales aboard her on his return from India, and the Royal yacht Osborne following her in in November 2000 with an auction result of GBP 22,325.00 (€ 36,489.33).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 63 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Florinda and Gwyndoline racing off the Nab lightship von Arthur Wellington Fowles wurde im Mai 2007 in der Auktion Maritime & Naval Battles (Pictures) bei Christies in London versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 1.140,00 (€ 1.677,59) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 63%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Arthur Wellington Fowles erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Indian troopship Serapis arriving at Portsmouth, 11 May 1876, with H.R.H. The Prince of Wales aboard her on his return from India, and the Royal yacht Osborne following her in im November 2000 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 22.325,00 (€ 36.489,33).
