Auction result well in line with expectations

The work A Tartar Village by William Simpson was sold in the Travel, Science & Natural History auction at Christies in London in October 2013. The price achieved of GBP 3,750.00 (€ 4,432.47) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Simpson achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Jerusalem from the Mount of Olives in March last year with an auction result of GBP 94,500.00 (€ 112,040.39).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit A Tartar Village von William Simpson wurde im Oktober 2013 in der Auktion Travel, Science & Natural History bei Christies in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 3.750,00 (€ 4.432,47) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Simpson erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Jerusalem from the Mount of Olives im März letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 94.500,00 (€ 112.040,39).
