Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Study of a young lady, seated, full-length, wearing a rose-coloured dress; and Study of a female nude by William Edward Frost was auctioned at Christies in London in March 2012. The price achieved of GBP 500.00 (€ 599.41) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 400.00 – 600.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Edward Frost achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Venus disarming Cupid in February 2003 with an auction result of GBP 38,240.00 (€ 55,829.19).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Study of a young lady, seated, full-length, wearing a rose-coloured dress; and Study of a female nude von William Edward Frost kam im März 2012 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 500,00 (€ 599,41) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 400,00 – 600,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Edward Frost erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Venus disarming Cupid im Februar 2003 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 38.240,00 (€ 55.829,19).
