Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Woman Taken in Adultery by William Nelson Copley was auctioned at Phillips in New York in October this year. The price achieved of USD 2,794.00 (€ 2,643.83) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 2,500.00 – 3,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Nelson Copley achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Gingham Girls in May last year with an auction result of USD 579,600.00 (€ 540,117.42).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Woman Taken in Adultery von William Nelson Copley kam im Oktober diesen Jahres bei Phillips in New York zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 2.794,00 (€ 2.643,83) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 2.500,00 – 3.500,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Nelson Copley erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Gingham Girls im Mai letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 579.600,00 (€ 540.117,42).
