Upper estimate price exceeded by 33 %.
In July 2004 Christies in London held the auction British and Continental Watercolours including Original, which included the work The little farm boy by Frederick Walker. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 1,195.00 (€ 1,805.91), 33% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Frederick Walker achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Harbour Of Refuge in November 2004 with an auction result of GBP 139,650.00 (€ 200,885.77).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 33 % übertroffen
Im Juli 2004 führte Christies in London die Auktion British and Continental Watercolours including Original durch, in der auch die Arbeit The little farm boy von Frederick Walker zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 1.195,00 (€ 1.805,91) und damit 33% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Frederick Walker erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Harbour Of Refuge im November 2004 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 139.650,00 (€ 200.885,77).
