Sold at the lower estimate price

The work A Study from Life by George Spencer Watson was sold in the Victorian & British Impressionist Art auction at Christies in London in May 2012. The result of GBP 15,000.00 (€ 18,689.34) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 15,000.00 – 25,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by George Spencer Watson - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Orange Dress, which sold at auction in November 2013 for GBP 47,500.00 (€ 57,159.89).

Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
