A top price for William Sharp - as previously expected
The work Watching Over his Sister by William Sharp was sold in the American Vision auction at Christies in New York in January 2000. It changed hands for a price of USD 2,760.00 (€ 2,828.74) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Watching Over his Sister is the most expensive artwork by William Sharp that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit Watching Over his Sister von William Sharp wurde im Januar 2000 in der Auktion American Vision bei Christies in New York versteigert. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von USD 2.760,00 (€ 2.828,74) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 2.000,00 – 3.000,00. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Watching Over his Sister das teuerste Kunstwerk von William Sharp, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
