Auction result misses estimated price range

This work of art by William Edward Webb could be acquired at Christies in London in June 2014 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Maritime Art auction, the work A Crowded Harbour At Dusk; And Bustling Activity In The Harbour changed hands for GBP 1,250.00 (€ 1,561.82) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 1,500.00 – 2,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Edward Webb achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Quayside Fish Market At Douglas, Isle Of Man in November 2004 with an auction result of GBP 17,925.00 (€ 25,785.02).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Dieses Kunstwerk von William Edward Webb konnte im Juni 2014 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Maritime Art wechselte die Arbeit A Crowded Harbour At Dusk; And Bustling Activity In The Harbour für GBP 1.250,00 (€ 1.561,82) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 1.500,00 – 2.500,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Edward Webb erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Quayside Fish Market At Douglas, Isle Of Man im November 2004 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 17.925,00 (€ 25.785,02).
