Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Hounds at full cry by Alfred Wheeler was sold in the Sporting Art auction at Christies in New York in December 2004. The price achieved of USD 5,975.00 (€ 4,413.50) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 5,000.00 – 7,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Alfred Wheeler - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Diamond Jubilee with jockey up by a post, which sold at auction in November 2002 for GBP 9,799.00 (€ 15,344.73).

Die Arbeit Hounds at full cry von Alfred Wheeler wurde im Dezember 2004 in der Auktion Sporting Art bei Christies in New York versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 5.975,00 (€ 4.413,50) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 5.000,00 – 7.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Alfred Wheeler mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Diamond Jubilee with jockey up by a post beobachtet, die im November 2002 für GBP 9.799,00 (€ 15.344,73) versteigert wurde.
