A top price for William Mitcheson Timlin - as previously expected
The work The Princess' Chamber by William Mitcheson Timlin was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in April 2011. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 22,500.00 (€ 15,181.16) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, The Princess' Chamber is the most expensive artwork by William Mitcheson Timlin that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit The Princess' Chamber von William Mitcheson Timlin kam im April 2011 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 20.000,00 – 30.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 22.500,00 (€ 15.181,16) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist The Princess' Chamber das teuerste Kunstwerk von William Mitcheson Timlin, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
