Upper estimate price exceeded by 25 %.
The work The Day In The Country by William Holman Hunt was auctioned at Sothebys in London in November 2008. It achieved a price of GBP 1,000.00 (€ 1,209.08), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 25%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Holman Hunt achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Tuscan Girl Plaiting Straw in December 2013 with an auction result of GBP 3,330,500.00 (€ 4,006,074.97).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 25 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit The Day In The Country von William Holman Hunt kam im November 2008 bei Sothebys in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 1.000,00 (€ 1.209,08) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 25%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Holman Hunt erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Tuscan Girl Plaiting Straw im Dezember 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 3.330.500,00 (€ 4.006.074,97).
