Auction result misses estimated price range

This work of art by Richard Wilson could be acquired at Christies in London in December 2011 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Old Masters and British Paintings auction, the work Portrait of a gentleman, half-length, in a purple coat and a gold embroidered blue waistcoat, feigned oval changed hands for GBP 1,250.00 (€ 1,497.05) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Richard Wilson achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The White Monk in January 2001 with an auction result of USD 391,000.00 (€ 420,068.76).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Dieses Kunstwerk von Richard Wilson konnte im Dezember 2011 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Old Masters and British Paintings wechselte die Arbeit Portrait of a gentleman, half-length, in a purple coat and a gold embroidered blue waistcoat, feigned oval für GBP 1.250,00 (€ 1.497,05) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Richard Wilson erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The White Monk im Januar 2001 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 391.000,00 (€ 420.068,76).
