Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work The Bewesley Moor with Brimham Craigs in the distance by William Roxby Beverley was auctioned at Christies in New York in January 2009, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 800.00 – 1,200.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 750.00 (€ 585.75). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Roxby Beverley achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Scarborough from the strand in January 2003 with an auction result of GBP 11,950.00 (€ 18,302.78).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit The Bewesley Moor with Brimham Craigs in the distance von William Roxby Beverley im Januar 2009 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 800,00 – 1.200,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 750,00 (€ 585,75) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Roxby Beverley erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Scarborough from the strand im Januar 2003 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 11.950,00 (€ 18.302,78).
