Upper estimate price exceeded by 34 %.
The work Silver birchs on a wooded river bank by Walter Follen Bishop was sold in the Christie's Interiors auction at Christies in London in February 2011. It achieved a price of GBP 937.50 (€ 1,104.30), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 34%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Walter Follen Bishop achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work In The Heart of The Forest in June 2007 with an auction result of GBP 18,000.00 (€ 26,711.09).

Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 937,50 (€ 1.104,30) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 34%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Walter Follen Bishop erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit In The Heart of The Forest im Juni 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 18.000,00 (€ 26.711,09).
