Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A group of poultry; and A garden corner by William Baptiste Baird was sold in the Christie's Interiors auction at Christies in London in March 2012. 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 (€ 1,048.96) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by William Baptiste Baird have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work All My Own - A Hen with her Chicks in December 2005 with an auction result of USD 6,600.00 (€ 5,573.38).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit A group of poultry; and A garden corner von William Baptiste Baird wurde im März 2012 in der Auktion Christie's Interiors 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 (€ 1.048,96) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von William Baptiste Baird auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit All My Own - A Hen with her Chicks im Dezember 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 6.600,00 (€ 5.573,38).
