Auction result well in line with expectations
In April 2011 Sothebys in London held the auction Old Master & Early British Paintings, which included the work The Topsail Schooner Amy Stockdale Off Dover by William John Huggins. The price achieved of GBP 6,250.00 (€ 7,038.58) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 5,000.00 – 7,000.00. Admittedly, works by William John Huggins have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Opium Ships At Lintin, China, 1824 in April 2011 with an auction result of GBP 37,250.00 (€ 41,949.92).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im April 2011 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Old Master & Early British Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Topsail Schooner Amy Stockdale Off Dover von William John Huggins zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 6.250,00 (€ 7.038,58) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 5.000,00 – 7.000,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von William John Huggins auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit The Opium Ships At Lintin, China, 1824 im April 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 37.250,00 (€ 41.949,92).
