This artwork by William Sidney Mount achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in October 2000. In the American Paintings and Sculpture auction, the work Along the North Shore, Long Island sold for USD 16,450.00 (€ 19,384.87) - well above the upper estimate of USD 8,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Sidney Mount achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Ramblers in May 2008 with an auction result of USD 2,281,000.00 (€ 1,465,938.30).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von William Sidney Mount erzielte im Oktober 2000 bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion American Paintings and Sculpture wurde die Arbeit Along the North Shore, Long Island für USD 16.450,00 (€ 19.384,87) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 8.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Sidney Mount erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Ramblers im Mai 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 2.281.000,00 (€ 1.465.938,30).
