Auction result well in line with expectations
In November 2010 Christies in London held the auction Victorian and British Impressionist Pictures, which included the work Santa Maria della Salute from the Bacino; and The Grand Canal, Venice by William Meadows. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 3,250.00 (€ 3,883.75) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by William Meadows have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work On The Grand Canal, Venice, Before The Fall of The Tower; And Santa Maria Della Salute, Venice in May 2005 with an auction result of GBP 15,600.00 (€ 23,030.50).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im November 2010 führte Christies in London die Auktion Victorian and British Impressionist Pictures durch, in der auch die Arbeit Santa Maria della Salute from the Bacino; and The Grand Canal, Venice von William Meadows zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 3.250,00 (€ 3.883,75) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von William Meadows auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit On The Grand Canal, Venice, Before The Fall of The Tower; And Santa Maria Della Salute, Venice im Mai 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 15.600,00 (€ 23.030,50).
