Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by George Wolfe achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Amsterdam in January 2002. In the PICTURES WATERCOLOURS AND DRAWINGS auction, the work A moored tallship in a river estuary, Britain, children playing in the foreground sold for EUR 2,115.00 - well above the upper estimate of EUR 900.00. Admittedly, works by George Wolfe have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The coast near Land's End, Cornwall in November 2007 with an auction result of GBP 6,250.00 (€ 8,751.62).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von George Wolfe erzielte im Januar 2002 bei Christies in Amsterdam einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion PICTURES WATERCOLOURS AND DRAWINGS wurde die Arbeit A moored tallship in a river estuary, Britain, children playing in the foreground für EUR 2.115,00 versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von EUR 900,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von George Wolfe auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit The coast near Land's End, Cornwall im November 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 6.250,00 (€ 8.751,62).
