Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%

This artwork by William Hodges achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in September 2003. In the Arts of India auction, the work View of the Palace of Nawab Asaf-ud-daulah at Lucknow sold for GBP 23,900.00 (€ 24,073.82) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 10,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Hodges achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Matavie Bay in the Island of Otaheite (Matavai Bay, Tahiti) in October 2019 with an auction result of GBP 659,250.00 (€ 764,682.72).

Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von William Hodges erzielte im September 2003 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Arts of India wurde die Arbeit View of the Palace of Nawab Asaf-ud-daulah at Lucknow für GBP 23.900,00 (€ 24.073,82) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 10.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Hodges erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Matavie Bay in the Island of Otaheite (Matavai Bay, Tahiti) im Oktober 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 659.250,00 (€ 764.682,72).
