Auction result well in line with expectations
In March 2004 Christies in London held the auction British and Victorian including Scottish Paintings, which included the work Figures on a rocky beach by James William Giles. It changed hands for a price of GBP 956.00 (€ 1,431.04) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 700.00 – 1,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by James William Giles achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work British Mr. J. A. Sandiland'S King Charles Spaniels in November 2007 with an auction result of USD 205,000.00 (€ 139,569.72).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im März 2004 führte Christies in London die Auktion British and Victorian including Scottish Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit Figures on a rocky beach von James William Giles zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von GBP 956,00 (€ 1.431,04) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 700,00 – 1.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von James William Giles erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit British Mr. J. A. Sandiland'S King Charles Spaniels im November 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 205.000,00 (€ 139.569,72).
