Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Australian Landscape Study by Fred Williams was auctioned at Sothebys in Melbourne in November 2009. Here, the upper estimate of AUD 20,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for AUD 20,400.00 (€ 12,439.46). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Fred Williams achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Australian Hillside I, 1965 in August 2007 with an auction result of AUD 1,920,000.00 (€ 1,148,115.24).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Australian Landscape Study von Fred Williams kam im November 2009 bei Sothebys in Melbourne zur Auktion. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von AUD 20.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für AUD 20.400,00 (€ 12.439,46) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Fred Williams erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Australian Hillside I, 1965 im August 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von AUD 1.920.000,00 (€ 1.148.115,24).
