Upper estimated price slightly exceeded

In July 2019 Christies in London held the auction Old Master and British Drawings and Watercolours Including Works from the Collection of Jean Bonna, which included the work Nine landscape studies including: travellers beside a river before a tower; travellers on a road beside a river; a boat landed in a bay; and figures entering a building beside a ruined chapel by William Payne. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 3,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 3,250.00 (€ 3,568.28). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by William Payne - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Shipping lying on the Tamar before Pentillie Castle, which sold at auction in May 2008 for GBP 8,125.00 (€ 10,335.36).

Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen

Im Juli 2019 führte Christies in London die Auktion Old Master and British Drawings and Watercolours Including Works from the Collection of Jean Bonna durch, in der auch die Arbeit Nine landscape studies including: travellers beside a river before a tower; travellers on a road beside a river; a boat landed in a bay; and figures entering a building beside a ruined chapel von William Payne zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 3.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 3.250,00 (€ 3.568,28) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von William Payne mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Shipping lying on the Tamar before Pentillie Castle beobachtet, die im Mai 2008 für GBP 8.125,00 (€ 10.335,36) versteigert wurde.
