A top price for Joseph William Carey - as previously expected
The work Theta; a yacht, racing in Belfast Lough by Joseph William Carey was auctioned at Christies in London in May 2000. The price achieved of GBP 4,700.00 (€ 7,541.77) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Theta; a yacht, racing in Belfast Lough is the most expensive artwork by Joseph William Carey that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit Theta; a yacht, racing in Belfast Lough von Joseph William Carey kam im Mai 2000 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 4.700,00 (€ 7.541,77) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Theta; a yacht, racing in Belfast Lough das teuerste Kunstwerk von Joseph William Carey, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
