Carl Wuttke (German, 1849-1927)
Street view in Beijing, China
signed and inscribed 'Peking' (lower left) and 'C.Wuttke. München' (lower right)
oil on board
76.8 x 60cm (30 1/4 x 23 5/8in).

Upper estimated price slightly exceeded

In September last year Bonhams in London held the auction Travel & Exploration, which included the work Street view in Beijing, China by Carl Wuttke. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 5,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 5,100.00 (€ 5,804.29). Admittedly, works by Carl Wuttke have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Great Umayyad Mosque, Damascus in May 2014 with an auction result of GBP 25,000.00 (€ 30,725.81).

Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen

Im September letzten Jahres führte Bonhams in London die Auktion Travel & Exploration durch, in der auch die Arbeit Street view in Beijing, China von Carl Wuttke zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 5.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 5.100,00 (€ 5.804,29) einen neuen Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Carl Wuttke auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit The Great Umayyad Mosque, Damascus im Mai 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 25.000,00 (€ 30.725,81).
