Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work The Voyage Of King Arthur And Morgan Le Fay To The Isle Of Avalon by Frank William Warwick Topham was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in January 2012, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 15,000.00 – 20,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 11,250.00 (€ 8,618.71). Other works by Frank William Warwick Topham have also sold for higher prices; the highest price we have seen at auction so far was achieved in November 2004 by the work A Garden By The Sea at GBP 6,572.50 (€ 9,454.51).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit The Voyage Of King Arthur And Morgan Le Fay To The Isle Of Avalon von Frank William Warwick Topham im Januar 2012 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 15.000,00 – 20.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 11.250,00 (€ 8.618,71) den Besitzer. Andere Arbeiten von Frank William Warwick Topham wurden auch schon teurer gehandelt; den höchsten Preis, den wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachten konnten, erzielte im November 2004 die Arbeit A Garden By The Sea mit GBP 6.572,50 (€ 9.454,51).
