A top price for Wilson Hepple - as previously expected
In July 2007 Sothebys in Olympia held the auction British & Continental Pictures including Sporting and Marine Paintings, which included the work Striking A Bargain by Wilson Hepple. It changed hands for a price of GBP 4,560.00 (€ 6,772.65) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Striking A Bargain is the most expensive artwork by Wilson Hepple that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im Juli 2007 führte Sothebys in Olympia die Auktion British & Continental Pictures including Sporting and Marine Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit Striking A Bargain von Wilson Hepple zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von GBP 4.560,00 (€ 6.772,65) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 3.000,00 – 5.000,00. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Striking A Bargain das teuerste Kunstwerk von Wilson Hepple, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
