Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A Cornish Village Maiden by Walter Langley was sold in the Victorian, Pre-Raphaelite & British Impressionist Art auction at Sothebys in London in December 2016. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 10,000.00 – 15,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 10,625.00 (€ 12,422.35) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Walter Langley achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A Cousin From Town in December 2006 with an auction result of GBP 176,000.00 (€ 261,206.03).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit A Cornish Village Maiden von Walter Langley wurde im Dezember 2016 in der Auktion Victorian, Pre-Raphaelite & British Impressionist Art bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 10.000,00 – 15.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 10.625,00 (€ 12.422,35) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Walter Langley erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A Cousin From Town im Dezember 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 176.000,00 (€ 261.206,03).
