Auction result misses estimated price range
In May 2012 a collector was able to acquire the work Brig bearing up for Folkestone by George Stanfield Walters for GBP 1,250.00 (€ 1,557.45). This price was achieved in the auction Maritime Art at Christies in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 2,000.00 – 4,000.00 set by the auction house. Admittedly, works by George Stanfield Walters have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work 'To sit on rocks, to muse o'er flood and fell This is not solitude! 'tis but to hold Converse with Nature's charms, and view her stores unrolled.' in June 2000 with an auction result of GBP 8,812.50 (€ 13,968.90).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Mai 2012 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Brig bearing up for Folkestone von George Stanfield Walters für GBP 1.250,00 (€ 1.557,45) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Maritime Art bei Christies in London erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 2.000,00 – 4.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von George Stanfield Walters auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit 'To sit on rocks, to muse o'er flood and fell This is not solitude! 'tis but to hold Converse with Nature's charms, and view her stores unrolled.' im Juni 2000 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 8.812,50 (€ 13.968,90).
