Upper estimate price exceeded by 68 %.
The work Shrimpers On A Rocky Coast by William Collingwood Smith was sold in the British and Continental Watercolours auction at Christies in London in March 2006. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 504.00 (€ 722.14), 68% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Collingwood Smith achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Thanksgiving Day, St Paul's Cathedral, 27 February 1872 in November 2012 with an auction result of GBP 11,250.00 (€ 13,858.86).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 68 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Shrimpers On A Rocky Coast von William Collingwood Smith wurde im März 2006 in der Auktion British and Continental Watercolours bei Christies in London versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 504,00 (€ 722,14) und damit 68% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Collingwood Smith erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Thanksgiving Day, St Paul's Cathedral, 27 February 1872 im November 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 11.250,00 (€ 13.858,86).
