This artwork by William Davison achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in January 2005. In the THE DAVID STYLE COLLECTION auction, the work A three-masted barque in full sail off a coastline sold for GBP 2,040.00 (€ 2,946.89) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 800.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by William Davison - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The auxiliary steamer Tycho Brahe off the South Stack Lighthouse, Anglesey, which sold at auction in July 2004 for USD 9,560.00 (€ 7,945.48).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von William Davison erzielte im Januar 2005 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion THE DAVID STYLE COLLECTION wurde die Arbeit A three-masted barque in full sail off a coastline für GBP 2.040,00 (€ 2.946,89) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 800,00. Für andere Arbeiten von William Davison mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The auxiliary steamer Tycho Brahe off the South Stack Lighthouse, Anglesey beobachtet, die im Juli 2004 für USD 9.560,00 (€ 7.945,48) versteigert wurde.
