Auction result well in line with expectations
The work American The Fabric Merchant by Walter Gould was sold in the 19th Century European Art including The Orientalist Sale auction at Sothebys in New York in October 2008. It changed hands for a price of USD 27,500.00 (€ 21,684.28) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Walter Gould achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work American The Public Scribe in April 2008 with an auction result of USD 1,217,000.00 (€ 781,731.76).
