Frederick E. Valter (1850-1930)
Cattle on a summer's day
signed 'Frederick. E. Valter' (lower left)
watercolour and bodycolour, unframed
12¾ x 18 in. (32.5 x 45.8 cm.)

Auction result misses estimated price range

This work of art by Frederick E. Valter could be acquired at Christies in London in October 2007 for an unexpectedly low price. In the British & Continental Watercolours and Drawings auction, the work Cattle on a summer's day changed hands for GBP 250.00 (€ 359.02) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 300.00 – 500.00. Admittedly, works by Frederick E. Valter have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Sheep and cattle resting in the shade in March 2001 with an auction result of GBP 1,292.50 (€ 2,085.58).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Dieses Kunstwerk von Frederick E. Valter konnte im Oktober 2007 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion British & Continental Watercolours and Drawings wechselte die Arbeit Cattle on a summer's day für GBP 250,00 (€ 359,02) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 300,00 – 500,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Frederick E. Valter auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Sheep and cattle resting in the shade im März 2001 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 1.292,50 (€ 2.085,58).
