Upper estimated price slightly exceeded

The work Abstract Forms, 1948 by William Johnstone was auctioned at Christies in London in March 2014. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 3,500.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 3,750.00 (€ 4,538.81). Admittedly, works by William Johnstone have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Earth, Air, Fire, Water in May 2007 with an auction result of GBP 19,200.00 (€ 28,254.10).

Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen

Die Arbeit Abstract Forms, 1948 von William Johnstone kam im März 2014 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 3.500,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 3.750,00 (€ 4.538,81) einen neuen Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von William Johnstone auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Earth, Air, Fire, Water im Mai 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 19.200,00 (€ 28.254,10).
