A top price for William Henry Margetson - as previously expected
The work On The Sands by William Henry Margetson was sold in the Victorian & Edwardian Art auction at Sothebys in London in May 2011. The price achieved of GBP 97,250.00 (€ 111,205.67) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 80,000.00 – 120,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, On The Sands is the most expensive artwork by William Henry Margetson that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit On The Sands von William Henry Margetson wurde im Mai 2011 in der Auktion Victorian & Edwardian Art bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 97.250,00 (€ 111.205,67) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 80.000,00 – 120.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist On The Sands das teuerste Kunstwerk von William Henry Margetson, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
