This artwork by William Elling Gollings achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in Los Angeles in November this year. In the Western Art auction, the work A Tie Down Man, 1927 sold for USD 4,480.00 (€ 4,107.08) - well above the upper estimate of USD 2,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Elling Gollings achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Buying Buckskins in February 2019 with an auction result of USD 220,000.00 (€ 193,338.61).

Dieses Kunstwerk von William Elling Gollings erzielte im November diesen Jahres bei Bonhams in Los Angeles einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Western Art wurde die Arbeit A Tie Down Man, 1927 für USD 4.480,00 (€ 4.107,08) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 2.500,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Elling Gollings erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Buying Buckskins im Februar 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 220.000,00 (€ 193.338,61).
