Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The Surprised Suitor; Or 'Love In A Tub When The Bottom Fell Out' by Dean Wolstenholme, Jun. was sold in the British Pictures 1500-1850 auction at Christies in London in June 2005. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 2,160.00 (€ 3,201.26) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Dean Wolstenholme, Jun. - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Meet of the Essex Harriers, which sold at auction in December 2019 for GBP 10,000.00 (€ 11,818.83).
