A top price for Halliday Avray-Wilson

When the work Shot Torso by Halliday Avray-Wilson was auctioned at Christies in London in October 2012, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 1,500.00 but the actual price achieved was more than five times as high at GBP 8,125.00 (€ 10,102.01). This high result makes Shot Torso the most expensive artwork by Halliday Avray-Wilson that we have observed at auctions so far.

Ein Spitzenpreis für Halliday Avray-Wilson

Als die Arbeit Shot Torso von Halliday Avray-Wilson im Oktober 2012 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 1.500,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 8.125,00 (€ 10.102,01) mehr als fünfmal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Shot Torso zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Halliday Avray-Wilson, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
