Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In January 2018 Sothebys in London held the auction Of Royal and Noble Descent, which included the work Congestion At The Harbour Mouth, Whitby by William Thornley. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 1,500.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 1,625.00 (€ 1,855.39). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Thornley achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Moonlit Docks; Sunset On The Banks in December 2006 with an auction result of GBP 12,600.00 (€ 18,699.98).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Januar 2018 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Of Royal and Noble Descent durch, in der auch die Arbeit Congestion At The Harbour Mouth, Whitby von William Thornley zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 1.500,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 1.625,00 (€ 1.855,39) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Thornley erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Moonlit Docks; Sunset On The Banks im Dezember 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 12.600,00 (€ 18.699,98).
