Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The 5th Hole, Westward Ho! by William Page Atkinson Wells was auctioned at Christies in London in October 2004. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 4,182.50 (€ 6,019.77) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by William Page Atkinson Wells - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Lilac Sunbonnet, which sold at auction in October 2008 for GBP 11,250.00 (€ 14,339.71).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit The 5th Hole, Westward Ho! von William Page Atkinson Wells kam im Oktober 2004 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 4.182,50 (€ 6.019,77) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von William Page Atkinson Wells mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Lilac Sunbonnet beobachtet, die im Oktober 2008 für GBP 11.250,00 (€ 14.339,71) versteigert wurde.
