Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Gothic church interiors by Richard Westall was auctioned at Christies in London in October 2002. The price achieved of GBP 587.50 (€ 929.32) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 500.00 – 800.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Richard Westall achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Faust and Lilith in December 2012 with an auction result of GBP 55,250.00 (€ 68,138.59).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Gothic church interiors von Richard Westall kam im Oktober 2002 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 587,50 (€ 929,32) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 500,00 – 800,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Richard Westall erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Faust and Lilith im Dezember 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 55.250,00 (€ 68.138,59).
