Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A Steamer Leaving Port In Heavy Weather, Figures Watching From The Pier by Erwin Carl Wilhelm Günter was sold in the Maritime Pictures auction at Christies in London in May 2006. The price achieved of GBP 840.00 (€ 1,226.13) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 700.00 – 900.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Erwin Carl Wilhelm Günter - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Sailing into the harbour, which sold at auction in January 2002 for EUR 4,700.00.
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit A Steamer Leaving Port In Heavy Weather, Figures Watching From The Pier von Erwin Carl Wilhelm Günter wurde im Mai 2006 in der Auktion Maritime Pictures bei Christies in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 840,00 (€ 1.226,13) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 700,00 – 900,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Erwin Carl Wilhelm Günter mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Sailing into the harbour beobachtet, die im Januar 2002 für EUR 4.700,00 versteigert wurde.
