The work Two boys fishing in a river landscape at sunset by Edwin Henry Boddington was sold in the British and European Art auction at Bonhams in London in March last year. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 2,422.50 (€ 2,872.15), 35% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Edwin Henry Boddington - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Eel Fishing On The Thames, which sold at auction in February 2013 for GBP 6,250.00 (€ 7,259.73).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 35 % übertroffen
