Artwork auctioned at seven times the upper estimate price
When the work Emmanuel Church, NW6 by William Coldstream was auctioned at Bonhams in London in November 2020, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 6,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than seven times as high at GBP 44,000.00 (€ 49,118.85). Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by William Coldstream; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Seated Nude sold at auction in November 2012 with the realized price of GBP 73,250.00 (€ 90,236.57).
Kunstwerk zum Siebenfachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Emmanuel Church, NW6 von William Coldstream im November 2020 bei Bonhams in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 6.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 44.000,00 (€ 49.118,85) mehr als siebenmal so hoch. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von William Coldstream; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit Seated Nude im November 2012 mit dem Hammerpreis von GBP 73.250,00 (€ 90.236,57).
