Upper estimate price exceeded by 33 %.
The work The Old Swan, Chelsea by Walter Greaves was auctioned at Christies in London in September 2012. It achieved a price of GBP 2,000.00 (€ 2,509.65), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 33%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Walter Greaves achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work James Abbott McNeill Whistler on the Widow's Walk at his House in Lindsey Row, Chelsea in June 2003 with an auction result of GBP 59,750.00 (€ 85,864.00).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 33 % übertroffen

Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 2.000,00 (€ 2.509,65) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 33%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Walter Greaves erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit James Abbott McNeill Whistler on the Widow's Walk at his House in Lindsey Row, Chelsea im Juni 2003 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 59.750,00 (€ 85.864,00).
