Despite a disappointment, a good price for William Adolphus Knell
In May 2012 a collector was able to acquire the work The East Indiaman Exeter making for the Ladrone Islands, China, 1805 by William Adolphus Knell for GBP 11,250.00 (€ 14,017.01). This price was achieved in the auction Maritime Art at Christies in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 12,000.00 – 18,000.00 set by the auction house. Despite this disappointing result, The East Indiaman Exeter making for the Ladrone Islands, China, 1805 is the most expensive artwork by William Adolphus Knell that we have observed at auction so far.
