Auction result well in line with expectations
In May 2012 Sothebys in Toronto held the auction Important Canadian Art, which included the work Drought In Ontario by William Kurelek. The price achieved of CAD 18,000.00 (€ 14,066.32) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as CAD 15,000.00 – 25,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Kurelek achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Wintertime North Of Winnipeg in November 2012 with an auction result of CAD 255,500.00 (€ 197,742.47).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Mai 2012 führte Sothebys in Toronto die Auktion Important Canadian Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Drought In Ontario von William Kurelek zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von CAD 18.000,00 (€ 14.066,32) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit CAD 15.000,00 – 25.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Kurelek erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Wintertime North Of Winnipeg im November 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von CAD 255.500,00 (€ 197.742,47).
