Auction result well in line with expectations
In December 2017 Christies in New York held the auction First Open | Post-War & Contemporary Art, which included the work Betty During A Noon Luncheon Which Naughty Betty Held for Naughty Helen (Who Didn't Win) Prior to the Miss Dog America Contest (Held, Later, in the Long Hallway Just Outside Mrs. Jenkins' Bedroom Door) and (Won by Good Helen) by Donald Roller Wilson. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 8,000.00 – 12,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 8,750.00 (€ 7,278.32) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by Donald Roller Wilson 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 Second Visit of the Queen in November 2017 with an auction result of USD 75,000.00 (€ 63,035.80).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Dezember 2017 führte Christies in New York die Auktion First Open | Post-War & Contemporary Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Betty During A Noon Luncheon Which Naughty Betty Held for Naughty Helen (Who Didn't Win) Prior to the Miss Dog America Contest (Held, Later, in the Long Hallway Just Outside Mrs. Jenkins' Bedroom Door) and (Won by Good Helen) von Donald Roller Wilson zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 8.000,00 – 12.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 8.750,00 (€ 7.278,32) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Donald Roller Wilson auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit The Second Visit of the Queen im November 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 75.000,00 (€ 63.035,80).
