Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Billingsgate by James Abbott McNeill Whistler was sold in the Prints & Photographs | Bonhams Skinner auction at Bonhams in May this year. The price achieved of USD 765.00 (€ 718.04) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 700.00 – 900.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by James Abbott McNeill Whistler achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Whistler Smoking in November 2021 with an auction result of USD 1,200,000.00 (€ 1,063,170.02).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Billingsgate von James Abbott McNeill Whistler wurde im Mai diesen Jahres in der Auktion Prints & Photographs | Bonhams Skinner bei Bonhams versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 765,00 (€ 718,04) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 700,00 – 900,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von James Abbott McNeill Whistler erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Whistler Smoking im November 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.200.000,00 (€ 1.063.170,02).
