In February 2013 Christies in London held the auction THE ROSS HAMILTON COLLECTION Journeys to the Pimlico Road, which included the work Romantic Blue Landscape by William Johnstone. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 8,125.00 (€ 9,437.65), 35% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by William Johnstone - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Earth, Air, Fire, Water, which sold at auction in May 2007 for GBP 19,200.00 (€ 28,254.10).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 35 % übertroffen

Im Februar 2013 führte Christies in London die Auktion THE ROSS HAMILTON COLLECTION Journeys to the Pimlico Road durch, in der auch die Arbeit Romantic Blue Landscape von William Johnstone zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 8.125,00 (€ 9.437,65) und damit 35% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von William Johnstone mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Earth, Air, Fire, Water beobachtet, die im Mai 2007 für GBP 19.200,00 (€ 28.254,10) versteigert wurde.
