In May 2019 Christies in New York held the auction American Art Online, which included the work Rocky Coastline, Cornwall by William Trost Richards. The »bidding war« ended at USD 50,000.00 (€ 44,847.07), 43% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Trost Richards achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Mackerel Cove, Jamestown, Rhode Island in May 2011 with an auction result of USD 1,650,500.00 (€ 1,148,094.05).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 43 % übertroffen
Im Mai 2019 führte Christies in New York die Auktion American Art Online durch, in der auch die Arbeit Rocky Coastline, Cornwall von William Trost Richards zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 50.000,00 (€ 44.847,07) und damit 43% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Trost Richards erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Mackerel Cove, Jamestown, Rhode Island im Mai 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.650.500,00 (€ 1.148.094,05).
