Edgar A. Holloway (B.1914)
Profile of the Etcher in 1937
etching, 1994, on laid paper, signed and dated in pencil, numbered 6/50, with margins, taped to the mount on the reverse, otherwise in very good condition, framed
P. 200 x 200 mm., S. 310 x 245 mm.

Auction result misses estimated price range

When the work Profile of the Etcher in 1937 by Edgar A. Holloway was auctioned at Christies in London in February 2008, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 400.00 – 600.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 250.00 (€ 326.99). Admittedly, works by Edgar A. Holloway have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Self-portrait no. 6 in February 2008 with an auction result of GBP 1,500.00 (€ 1,961.94).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Als die Arbeit Profile of the Etcher in 1937 von Edgar A. Holloway im Februar 2008 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 400,00 – 600,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 250,00 (€ 326,99) den Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Edgar A. Holloway auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Self-portrait no. 6 im Februar 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 1.500,00 (€ 1.961,94).
