Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In March 2002 Christies in London held the auction British, Victorian and Scottish Pictures including Pictures, which included the work A shepherd and his flock on a country path by William Watt Milne. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 2,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 2,232.50 (€ 3,649.55). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by William Watt Milne - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A Shepherdess with her flock, which sold at auction in November 2001 for GBP 6,462.50 (€ 10,283.87).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im März 2002 führte Christies in London die Auktion British, Victorian and Scottish Pictures including Pictures durch, in der auch die Arbeit A shepherd and his flock on a country path von William Watt Milne zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 2.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 2.232,50 (€ 3.649,55) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von William Watt Milne mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A Shepherdess with her flock beobachtet, die im November 2001 für GBP 6.462,50 (€ 10.283,87) versteigert wurde.
