Auction result misses estimated price range
In December 2001 a collector was able to acquire the work "Who? Me?" by Victor Weisz for GBP 35.25 (€ 57.59). This price was achieved in the auction BRITISH AND CONTINENTAL DRAWINGS AND WATERCOLOURS AND ILLUST at Christies in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 250.00 – 350.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Victor Weisz achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Winston Churchill Is Conquering The House in March 2018 with an auction result of GBP 3,250.00 (€ 3,700.30).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Dezember 2001 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit "Who? Me?" von Victor Weisz für GBP 35,25 (€ 57,59) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion BRITISH AND CONTINENTAL DRAWINGS AND WATERCOLOURS AND ILLUST bei Christies in London erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 250,00 – 350,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Victor Weisz erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Winston Churchill Is Conquering The House im März 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 3.250,00 (€ 3.700,30).
