Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The Happy Valley by Joseph William Carey was sold in the British & Continental Watercolours including Original Book auction at Christies in London in December 2003. The price achieved of GBP 411.25 (€ 582.48) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 300.00 – 500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Joseph William Carey achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Theta; a yacht, racing in Belfast Lough in May 2000 with an auction result of GBP 4,700.00 (€ 7,541.77).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit The Happy Valley von Joseph William Carey wurde im Dezember 2003 in der Auktion British & Continental Watercolours including Original Book bei Christies in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 411,25 (€ 582,48) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 300,00 – 500,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Joseph William Carey erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Theta; a yacht, racing in Belfast Lough im Mai 2000 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 4.700,00 (€ 7.541,77).
