Auction result well in line with expectations
In November 2005 Christies in London held the auction British and Victorian Paintings, which included the work On The Bacino At Sunset, Venice by William Adolphus Knell. The price achieved of GBP 600.00 (€ 881.48) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 500.00 – 800.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Adolphus Knell achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The East Indiaman Exeter making for the Ladrone Islands, China, 1805 in May 2012 with an auction result of GBP 11,250.00 (€ 14,017.01).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im November 2005 führte Christies in London die Auktion British and Victorian Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit On The Bacino At Sunset, Venice von William Adolphus Knell zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 600,00 (€ 881,48) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 500,00 – 800,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Adolphus Knell erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The East Indiaman Exeter making for the Ladrone Islands, China, 1805 im Mai 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 11.250,00 (€ 14.017,01).
