Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Joseph Wilton could be acquired at Christies in London in December 2015 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Old Master & British Drawings & Watercolours auction, the work Study For A Decorative Frieze changed hands for GBP 438.00 (€ 594.78) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 600.00 – 800.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Joseph Wilton achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Study of the Fountain of Neptune, Bologna and subsidiary studies of the ornaments in July 2012 with an auction result of GBP 9,375.00 (€ 11,941.23).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Joseph Wilton konnte im Dezember 2015 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Old Master & British Drawings & Watercolours wechselte die Arbeit Study For A Decorative Frieze für GBP 438,00 (€ 594,78) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 600,00 – 800,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Joseph Wilton erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Study of the Fountain of Neptune, Bologna and subsidiary studies of the ornaments im Juli 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 9.375,00 (€ 11.941,23).
