Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Distant thoughts by William A. Breakspeare was sold in the Victorian and British Impressionist Pictures including Drawings and Watercolours auction at Christies in London in November 2009. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 800.00 – 1,200.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 875.00 (€ 957.57) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William A. Breakspeare achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A Good Bowl Of Punch in June 2010 with an auction result of USD 26,250.00 (€ 21,357.09).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Distant thoughts von William A. Breakspeare wurde im November 2009 in der Auktion Victorian and British Impressionist Pictures including Drawings and Watercolours bei Christies in London versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 800,00 – 1.200,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 875,00 (€ 957,57) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William A. Breakspeare erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A Good Bowl Of Punch im Juni 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 26.250,00 (€ 21.357,09).
