Auction result misses estimated price range
In July 2006 a collector was able to acquire the work Bolton Abbey by William Bennett for GBP 120.00 (€ 175.67). This price was achieved in the auction British and Continental Watercolours at Christies in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 300.00 – 500.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Bennett achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait of Robert Bullough, bust-length, wearing a red velvet jacket and white cravat; and Portrait of his wife, Sarah, bust-length, wearing a blue dress with lace borders and two brooches, in a feigned oval in May 2004 with an auction result of GBP 2,987.50 (€ 4,482.35).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Juli 2006 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Bolton Abbey von William Bennett für GBP 120,00 (€ 175,67) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion British and Continental Watercolours bei Christies in London erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 300,00 – 500,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Bennett erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait of Robert Bullough, bust-length, wearing a red velvet jacket and white cravat; and Portrait of his wife, Sarah, bust-length, wearing a blue dress with lace borders and two brooches, in a feigned oval im Mai 2004 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 2.987,50 (€ 4.482,35).
