Auction result well in line with expectations
The work American the Fabric Merchant by Walter Gould was auctioned at Sothebys in London in June 2010. It changed hands for a price of GBP 7,500.00 (€ 9,120.70) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 6,000.00 – 8,000.00. 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).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit American the Fabric Merchant von Walter Gould kam im Juni 2010 bei Sothebys in London zur Auktion. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von GBP 7.500,00 (€ 9.120,70) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 6.000,00 – 8.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Walter Gould erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit American The Public Scribe im April 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.217.000,00 (€ 781.731,76).
