Sold at the lower estimate price
In May 2021 Christies in New York held the auction American Art, which included the work Moorland Gorse And Bracken by Victor William Higgins. The result of USD 40,000.00 (€ 32,803.02) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 40,000.00 – 60,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Victor William Higgins achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Going Home in November 2015 with an auction result of USD 773,000.00 (€ 731,868.96).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Im Mai 2021 führte Christies in New York die Auktion American Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Moorland Gorse And Bracken von Victor William Higgins zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 40.000,00 (€ 32.803,02) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 40.000,00 – 60.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Victor William Higgins erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Going Home im November 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 773.000,00 (€ 731.868,96).
