Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A view of the Temple of Juno, Agrigento, Sicily by Hugh William Williams was auctioned at Bonhams in London in December this year. The price achieved of GBP 6,400.00 (€ 7,372.55) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 5,000.00 – 7,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Hugh William Williams achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work An extensive view of the Acropolis and Athens, Greece, with the Herodeion Atticon below in July 2011 with an auction result of GBP 157,250.00 (€ 180,467.90).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit A view of the Temple of Juno, Agrigento, Sicily von Hugh William Williams kam im Dezember diesen Jahres bei Bonhams in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 6.400,00 (€ 7.372,55) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 5.000,00 – 7.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Hugh William Williams erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit An extensive view of the Acropolis and Athens, Greece, with the Herodeion Atticon below im Juli 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 157.250,00 (€ 180.467,90).
