A top price for William Grimaldi - as previously expected

In July 2015 Sothebys in London held the auction Old Master & British Drawings, which included the work Portrait Of Arthur Wellesley, 1St Duke Of Wellington (1769-1852) by William Grimaldi. The price achieved of GBP 6,875.00 (€ 9,746.44) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 6,000.00 – 8,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Portrait Of Arthur Wellesley, 1St Duke Of Wellington (1769-1852) is the most expensive artwork by William Grimaldi that we have observed at auctions so far.

Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage

Im Juli 2015 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Old Master & British Drawings durch, in der auch die Arbeit Portrait Of Arthur Wellesley, 1St Duke Of Wellington (1769-1852) von William Grimaldi zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 6.875,00 (€ 9.746,44) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 6.000,00 – 8.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Portrait Of Arthur Wellesley, 1St Duke Of Wellington (1769-1852) das teuerste Kunstwerk von William Grimaldi, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
