Auction result well in line with expectations
In May 2004 Christies in London held the auction THE IRISH SALE, which included the work A shepherd with his flock on a track, a river beyond by William Mulready. The price achieved of GBP 1,792.50 (€ 2,689.41) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 1,500.00 – 2,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Mulready achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Boys Fishing in December 2014 with an auction result of GBP 30,000.00 (€ 38,619.95).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Mai 2004 führte Christies in London die Auktion THE IRISH SALE durch, in der auch die Arbeit A shepherd with his flock on a track, a river beyond von William Mulready zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 1.792,50 (€ 2.689,41) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 1.500,00 – 2.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Mulready erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Boys Fishing im Dezember 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 30.000,00 (€ 38.619,95).
