Upper estimate price exceeded by 81 %.
This artwork by William Hayes achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in March 2014. In the Two Distinguished American Collections:The Estate of the Hon. Noreen Drexel, Newport, R.I., The Estate of Van Cliburn, Fort Worth, TX auction, the work Green Woodpecker; And Stock Dove sold for USD 1,625.00 (€ 1,179.50) - well above the upper estimate of USD 900.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Hayes achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Drawings of birds, sixty original watercolours, 1791-1792 in May last year with an auction result of GBP 37,800.00 (€ 44,468.10).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 81 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von William Hayes erzielte im März 2014 bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Two Distinguished American Collections:The Estate of the Hon. Noreen Drexel, Newport, R.I., The Estate of Van Cliburn, Fort Worth, TX wurde die Arbeit Green Woodpecker; And Stock Dove für USD 1.625,00 (€ 1.179,50) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 900,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Hayes erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Drawings of birds, sixty original watercolours, 1791-1792 im Mai letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 37.800,00 (€ 44.468,10).
