Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Children on the Italian coast with a basket of grapes, Capri beyond by Wilhelm Kray was sold in the At Home - British and Continental Pictures & Works on Paper auction at Christies in London in April 2003. The price achieved of GBP 3,760.00 (€ 4,899.02) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Wilhelm Kray - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work German the Sirens, which sold at auction in May 2015 for GBP 12,500.00 (€ 17,379.93).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Children on the Italian coast with a basket of grapes, Capri beyond von Wilhelm Kray wurde im April 2003 in der Auktion At Home - British and Continental Pictures & Works on Paper bei Christies in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 3.760,00 (€ 4.899,02) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Wilhelm Kray mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit German the Sirens beobachtet, die im Mai 2015 für GBP 12.500,00 (€ 17.379,93) versteigert wurde.
