Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Keeley Halswelle achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in May 2001. In the BRITISH AND CONTINENTAL WATERCOLOURS AND DRAWINGS auction, the work San Maria sold for GBP 763.75 (€ 1,280.44) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 350.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Keeley Halswelle achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Play Scene in Hamlet Hamlet: He poisons him i' the garden for his estate. His name's Gonzago: this story is extant, and written in very choice Italian: you shall see anon, how the murder gets the love of Gonzago's wife. Ophelia: The king rises H in February 2003 with an auction result of GBP 116,650.00 (€ 17
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Keeley Halswelle erzielte im Mai 2001 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion BRITISH AND CONTINENTAL WATERCOLOURS AND DRAWINGS wurde die Arbeit San Maria für GBP 763,75 (€ 1.280,44) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 350,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Keeley Halswelle erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Play Scene in Hamlet Hamlet: He poisons him i' the garden for his estate. His name's Gonzago: this story is extant, and written in very choice Italian: you shall see anon, how the murder gets the love of Gonzago's wife. Ophelia: The king rises H im Februar 2003 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 116.650,00 (€ 170.305,32).
