Despite a disappointment, a good price for Walter Langley
This work of art by Walter Langley could be acquired at Sothebys in London in December 2006 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Victorian & Edwardian Art auction, the work A Cousin From Town changed hands for GBP 176,000.00 (€ 261,206.03) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 180,000.00 – 250,000.00. Despite this disappointing result, A Cousin From Town is the most expensive artwork by Walter Langley that we have observed at auction so far.
Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Walter Langley
Dieses Kunstwerk von Walter Langley konnte im Dezember 2006 bei Sothebys in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Victorian & Edwardian Art wechselte die Arbeit A Cousin From Town für GBP 176.000,00 (€ 261.206,03) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 180.000,00 – 250.000,00. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist A Cousin From Town das teuerste Kunstwerk von Walter Langley, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
