Auction result well in line with expectations
The work False Bay. South Africa. Oct. 1901. by Edward Adrian Wilson was auctioned at Christies in London in September 2010. It changed hands for a price of GBP 1,500.00 (€ 1,734.91) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 1,200.00 – 1,600.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Edward Adrian Wilson achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The sledge party to White Island, February 1902: Shackleton, Wilson and Ferrar preparing to set out; Shackleton and Wilson making camp in September 2007 with an auction result of GBP 22,100.00 (€ 31,689.77).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit False Bay. South Africa. Oct. 1901. von Edward Adrian Wilson kam im September 2010 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von GBP 1.500,00 (€ 1.734,91) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 1.200,00 – 1.600,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Edward Adrian Wilson erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The sledge party to White Island, February 1902: Shackleton, Wilson and Ferrar preparing to set out; Shackleton and Wilson making camp im September 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 22.100,00 (€ 31.689,77).
