Upper estimate price exceeded by 56 %.
The work Arabs at a temple on the Nile by William Simpson was auctioned at Christies in London in October 2010. It achieved a price of GBP 937.50 (€ 1,080.95), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 56%. 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).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 56 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Arabs at a temple on the Nile von William Simpson kam im Oktober 2010 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 937,50 (€ 1.080,95) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 56%. 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).
