Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by William Taverner achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in London in March 2017. In the Two Great Scottish Collections: Property from the Forbeses of Pitsligo and the Marquesses of Lothian auction, the work A Landscape With Figures Seated Under A Tree sold for GBP 1,875.00 (€ 2,197.31) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 800.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Taverner achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work On the outskirts of a town in July 2012 with an auction result of GBP 26,250.00 (€ 33,435.44).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von William Taverner erzielte im März 2017 bei Sothebys in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Two Great Scottish Collections: Property from the Forbeses of Pitsligo and the Marquesses of Lothian wurde die Arbeit A Landscape With Figures Seated Under A Tree für GBP 1.875,00 (€ 2.197,31) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 800,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Taverner erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit On the outskirts of a town im Juli 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 26.250,00 (€ 33.435,44).
