Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Miss Hughes, facing right in off the shoulder black dress and wearing a demi-parure of a jewelled brooch at corsage and a gold bandeau in her dark dressed hair by William John Newton was sold in the Objects of Vertu, Miniatures and Icons auction at Christies in London in May 2001. It changed hands for a price of GBP 564.00 (€ 945.56) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 400.00 – 600.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William John Newton achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Captain Thomas Boteler In Gold-Bordered Naval Uniform With White Facings And Gold Epaulettes in November 2006 with an auction result of GBP 7,800.00 (€ 11,583.24).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Miss Hughes, facing right in off the shoulder black dress and wearing a demi-parure of a jewelled brooch at corsage and a gold bandeau in her dark dressed hair von William John Newton wurde im Mai 2001 in der Auktion Objects of Vertu, Miniatures and Icons bei Christies in London versteigert. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von GBP 564,00 (€ 945,56) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 400,00 – 600,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William John Newton erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Captain Thomas Boteler In Gold-Bordered Naval Uniform With White Facings And Gold Epaulettes im November 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 7.800,00 (€ 11.583,24).
