Auction result well in line with expectations
In September 2010 Christies in London held the auction Exploration and Travel including the Polar Sale, which included the work Rainclouds, Fort Augustus (Inverness-shire) by Edward Adrian Wilson. The price achieved of GBP 937.50 (€ 1,084.32) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 800.00 – 1,200.00. 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
Im September 2010 führte Christies in London die Auktion Exploration and Travel including the Polar Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Rainclouds, Fort Augustus (Inverness-shire) von Edward Adrian Wilson zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 937,50 (€ 1.084,32) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 800,00 – 1.200,00 angegeben worden. 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).
