Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Frederick Williamson achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in September 2004. In the British and Continental Watercolours auction, the work The Landslip - Isle of Wight sold for GBP 2,629.00 (€ 3,830.12) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 1,200.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Frederick Williamson; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Cattle and sheep at pasture; and Sheep resting in a meadow sold at auction in November 2000 with the realized price of GBP 4,112.50 (€ 6,721.72).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Frederick Williamson erzielte im September 2004 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion British and Continental Watercolours wurde die Arbeit The Landslip - Isle of Wight für GBP 2.629,00 (€ 3.830,12) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 1.200,00. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Frederick Williamson; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit Cattle and sheep at pasture; and Sheep resting in a meadow im November 2000 mit dem Hammerpreis von GBP 4.112,50 (€ 6.721,72).
