Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work The Meeting Of The Provinces by William Raphael was auctioned at Sothebys in Toronto in June 2010, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of CAD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for CAD 19,200.00 (€ 14,727.65). Other works by William Raphael have also sold for higher prices; the highest price we have seen at auction so far was achieved in November 2012 by the work Three Montagnais Indian Birch Bark Wigwams, Point-Au-Pic, Murray Bay at CAD 30,000.00 (€ 23,218.29).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit The Meeting Of The Provinces von William Raphael im Juni 2010 bei Sothebys in Toronto versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von CAD 20.000,00 – 30.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für CAD 19.200,00 (€ 14.727,65) den Besitzer. Andere Arbeiten von William Raphael wurden auch schon teurer gehandelt; den höchsten Preis, den wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachten konnten, erzielte im November 2012 die Arbeit Three Montagnais Indian Birch Bark Wigwams, Point-Au-Pic, Murray Bay mit CAD 30.000,00 (€ 23.218,29).
