Auction result well in line with expectations

In May 2013 Christies in London held the auction 19th Century European Art Including Orientalist Art, which included the work A Doric Temple In Sicily With Castelmola And Taormina Beyond by Ferdinand Georg Waldmüller. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 200,000.00 – 300,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 217,875.00 (€ 254,729.89) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Other works by Ferdinand Georg Waldmüller have already achieved higher auction prices, for example, in July 2010 the work Red and white grapes and silver tableware on a marble ledge was auctioned for GBP 301,250.00 (€ 362,219.18).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im Mai 2013 führte Christies in London die Auktion 19th Century European Art Including Orientalist Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit A Doric Temple In Sicily With Castelmola And Taormina Beyond von Ferdinand Georg Waldmüller zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 200.000,00 – 300.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 217.875,00 (€ 254.729,89) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Andere Arbeiten von Ferdinand Georg Waldmüller konnten bereits höhere Auktionspreise erzielen, so wurde im Juli 2010 die Arbeit Red and white grapes and silver tableware on a marble ledge für GBP 301.250,00 (€ 362.219,18) versteigert.
