Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Foxhunting Vignettes by William Joseph Shayer was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in September 2020, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 3,000.00 – 5,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 1,890.00 (€ 1,612.90). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Joseph Shayer achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Going out of Kennels; Moving Off; Casting for Scent; Gone Away; Full Cry; and Nearing the Kill. in December 2000 with an auction result of USD 23,500.00 (€ 25,031.96).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Foxhunting Vignettes von William Joseph Shayer im September 2020 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 1.890,00 (€ 1.612,90) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Joseph Shayer erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Going out of Kennels; Moving Off; Casting for Scent; Gone Away; Full Cry; and Nearing the Kill. im Dezember 2000 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 23.500,00 (€ 25.031,96).
