Auction result misses estimated price range

When the work The lone stag; and The otter pool by Owen Williams was auctioned at Christies in London in July 2006, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 300.00 – 500.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 120.00 (€ 175.67). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Owen Williams achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Ptarmigan; a glimpse of a red grouse; oyster catchers flying low above a river; and deer on a hill in December 2017 with an auction result of GBP 1,625.00 (€ 1,828.70).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Als die Arbeit The lone stag; and The otter pool von Owen Williams im Juli 2006 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 300,00 – 500,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 120,00 (€ 175,67) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Owen Williams erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Ptarmigan; a glimpse of a red grouse; oyster catchers flying low above a river; and deer on a hill im Dezember 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 1.625,00 (€ 1.828,70).
