Auction result well in line with expectations
In October 2004 Christies in London held the auction The Scottish Sale at The Assembly Rooms, Edinburgh, which included the work The ruined castle by James Whitelaw Hamilton. The price achieved of GBP 3,585.00 (€ 5,159.80) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by James Whitelaw Hamilton - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Harbour Side, which sold at auction in August 2008 for GBP 10,000.00 (€ 12,400.30).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Oktober 2004 führte Christies in London die Auktion The Scottish Sale at The Assembly Rooms, Edinburgh durch, in der auch die Arbeit The ruined castle von James Whitelaw Hamilton zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 3.585,00 (€ 5.159,80) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von James Whitelaw Hamilton mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Harbour Side beobachtet, die im August 2008 für GBP 10.000,00 (€ 12.400,30) versteigert wurde.
