Edward Hughes (1832-1908)
The market girl
signed and dated 'Edward Hughes/1863' (lower right)
oil on canvas
16 x 12 in. (40.6 x 30.5 cm.), in an oval mount

Upper estimate price exceeded by 56 %.

In July 2008 Christies in London held the auction Christie's Interiors, which included the work The market girl by Edward Hughes. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 1,875.00 (€ 2,382.21), 56% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Edward Hughes achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work British an English Artist Collecting Costumes In Brittany in February 2018 with an auction result of USD 50,000.00 (€ 40,946.69).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 56 % übertroffen

Im Juli 2008 führte Christies in London die Auktion Christie's Interiors durch, in der auch die Arbeit The market girl von Edward Hughes zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 1.875,00 (€ 2.382,21) und damit 56% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Edward Hughes erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit British an English Artist Collecting Costumes In Brittany im Februar 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 50.000,00 (€ 40.946,69).
