Auction result well in line with expectations
In September 2005 Christies in London held the auction PORTRAIT MINIATURES, OBJECTS OF VERTU AND SILVER, which included the work A young lady, in orange dress with yellow border and wearing a black stole over her shoulders, long fair hair by Charles William Day. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 400.00 – 600.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 420.00 (€ 616.38) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Charles William Day - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A Collection Of Twenty Works On Paper Depicting The Landscape, Flora And Fauna Of The West Indies 13 X 21.5 Cm (5 1/8 X 8 7/16In) And Smaller. (20), which sold at auction in February 2019 for GBP 1,750.00 (€ 2,041.44).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im September 2005 führte Christies in London die Auktion PORTRAIT MINIATURES, OBJECTS OF VERTU AND SILVER durch, in der auch die Arbeit A young lady, in orange dress with yellow border and wearing a black stole over her shoulders, long fair hair von Charles William Day zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 400,00 – 600,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 420,00 (€ 616,38) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Charles William Day mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A Collection Of Twenty Works On Paper Depicting The Landscape, Flora And Fauna Of The West Indies 13 X 21.5 Cm (5 1/8 X 8 7/16In) And Smaller. (20) beobachtet, die im Februar 2019 für GBP 1.750,00 (€ 2.041,44) versteigert wurde.
