Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Elsie Henderson could be acquired at Christies in London in July 2004 for an unexpectedly low price. In the British and Continental Watercolours including Original auction, the work Resting leopards (illustrated); An expectant leopard; Sleeping lioness; and An alert lioness changed hands for GBP 179.25 (€ 270.89) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 300.00 – 500.00. Admittedly, works by Elsie Henderson have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Four Watercolors, Including Tigers, A Lion, Frogs And Swans in October 2019 with an auction result of USD 1,875.00 (€ 1,680.86).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Elsie Henderson konnte im Juli 2004 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion British and Continental Watercolours including Original wechselte die Arbeit Resting leopards (illustrated); An expectant leopard; Sleeping lioness; and An alert lioness für GBP 179,25 (€ 270,89) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 300,00 – 500,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Elsie Henderson auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Four Watercolors, Including Tigers, A Lion, Frogs And Swans im Oktober 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.875,00 (€ 1.680,86).
