Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work The orphan family by Edward Henry Holder was auctioned at Christies in London in September 2003, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 2,500.00 – 3,500.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 2,350.00 (€ 2,367.09). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Edward Henry Holder - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Devil'S Cataract And Victoria Falls, From The West Bank Of The Zambezi River, which sold at auction in December 2017 for GBP 7,500.00 (€ 8,440.15).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit The orphan family von Edward Henry Holder im September 2003 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 2.500,00 – 3.500,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 2.350,00 (€ 2.367,09) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Edward Henry Holder mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Devil'S Cataract And Victoria Falls, From The West Bank Of The Zambezi River beobachtet, die im Dezember 2017 für GBP 7.500,00 (€ 8.440,15) versteigert wurde.
