Upper estimate price exceeded by 41 %.
The work Mary Queen of Scots at prayer in her cell by William Maw Egley was sold in the BRITISH AND CONTINENTAL PICTURES auction at Christies in London in February 2001. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 564.00 (€ 883.65), 41% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Maw Egley achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Catherine of Aragon in June 2002 with an auction result of GBP 20,315.00 (€ 31,422.70).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 41 % übertroffen

Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 564,00 (€ 883,65) und damit 41% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Maw Egley erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Catherine of Aragon im Juni 2002 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 20.315,00 (€ 31.422,70).
