Upper estimate price exceeded by 48 %.
The work The toy boat by William McTaggart was sold in the Victorian, Pre-Raphaelite & British Impressionist Art auction at Christies in London in June 2014. It achieved a price of GBP 11,875.00 (€ 14,837.24), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 48%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William McTaggart achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Past And The Present in August 2008 with an auction result of GBP 133,250.00 (€ 165,234.00).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 48 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit The toy boat von William McTaggart wurde im Juni 2014 in der Auktion Victorian, Pre-Raphaelite & British Impressionist Art bei Christies in London versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 11.875,00 (€ 14.837,24) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 48%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William McTaggart erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Past And The Present im August 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 133.250,00 (€ 165.234,00).
