Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In July 2004 Christies in London held the auction British and Continental Watercolours including Original, which included the work Carlisle from the road to Richerby, Cumbria by William Westall. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 600.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 657.25 (€ 993.25). Admittedly, works by William Westall have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Entrance of The Great Cave Temple of Elephanta, Near Bombay in July 2006 with an auction result of GBP 3,360.00 (€ 4,918.65).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Juli 2004 führte Christies in London die Auktion British and Continental Watercolours including Original durch, in der auch die Arbeit Carlisle from the road to Richerby, Cumbria von William Westall zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 600,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 657,25 (€ 993,25) einen neuen Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von William Westall auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Entrance of The Great Cave Temple of Elephanta, Near Bombay im Juli 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 3.360,00 (€ 4.918,65).
