This artwork by William Morris achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Hong Kong in December 2014. In the Interiors auction, the work Artifact Still Life: Three Works sold for USD 3,500.00 (€ 2,892.32) - well above the upper estimate of USD 1,800.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Morris achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work 'Antelope Trophy', 2000 in March 2014 with an auction result of USD 60,000.00 (€ 43,550.85).

Dieses Kunstwerk von William Morris erzielte im Dezember 2014 bei Christies in Hong Kong einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Interiors wurde die Arbeit Artifact Still Life: Three Works für USD 3.500,00 (€ 2.892,32) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 1.800,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Morris erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit 'Antelope Trophy', 2000 im März 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 60.000,00 (€ 43.550,85).
