Auction result misses estimated price range
In May 2018 a collector was able to acquire the work Yellow Carn of Cornwall by William Trost Richards for USD 62,500.00 (€ 53,556.13). This price was achieved in the auction The Collection of Peggy and David Rockefeller: Fine Art, Day Sale at Christies in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 100,000.00 – 150,000.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Trost Richards achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Mackerel Cove, Jamestown, Rhode Island in May 2011 with an auction result of USD 1,650,500.00 (€ 1,148,094.05).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Mai 2018 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Yellow Carn of Cornwall von William Trost Richards für USD 62.500,00 (€ 53.556,13) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion The Collection of Peggy and David Rockefeller: Fine Art, Day Sale bei Christies in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 100.000,00 – 150.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Trost Richards erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Mackerel Cove, Jamestown, Rhode Island im Mai 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.650.500,00 (€ 1.148.094,05).
