A top price for James Whaite - as previously expected
In November 2018 Sothebys in London held the auction A Living Legacy: Irish Art from the Collection of Brian P. Burns, which included the work Bantry Bay by James Whaite. The price achieved of GBP 6,000.00 (€ 6,767.82) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 5,000.00 – 7,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Bantry Bay is the most expensive artwork by James Whaite that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im November 2018 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion A Living Legacy: Irish Art from the Collection of Brian P. Burns durch, in der auch die Arbeit Bantry Bay von James Whaite zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 6.000,00 (€ 6.767,82) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 5.000,00 – 7.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Bantry Bay das teuerste Kunstwerk von James Whaite, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
