Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Faraway thoughts by William Henry Midwood was auctioned at Christies in London in July 2016. The price achieved of GBP 2,000.00 (€ 2,376.43) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 1,500.00 – 2,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Henry Midwood achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Parting Of Burns And His Highland Mary in August 2008 with an auction result of GBP 43,250.00 (€ 53,631.30).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Faraway thoughts von William Henry Midwood kam im Juli 2016 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 2.000,00 (€ 2.376,43) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 1.500,00 – 2.500,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Henry Midwood erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Parting Of Burns And His Highland Mary im August 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 43.250,00 (€ 53.631,30).
