Auction result well in line with expectations
In May 2018 Christies in New York held the auction American Art Online, which included the work Couple in Cotton Field, Woman with Yellow Bonnet by William Aiken Walker. The price achieved of USD 8,125.00 (€ 6,962.30) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 7,000.00 – 10,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Aiken Walker achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Big B Cotton Plantation in November 2017 with an auction result of USD 648,500.00 (€ 545,049.59).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Mai 2018 führte Christies in New York die Auktion American Art Online durch, in der auch die Arbeit Couple in Cotton Field, Woman with Yellow Bonnet von William Aiken Walker zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 8.125,00 (€ 6.962,30) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 7.000,00 – 10.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Aiken Walker erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Big B Cotton Plantation im November 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 648.500,00 (€ 545.049,59).
