Auction result well in line with expectations
In October 2004 Christies in London held the auction The Scottish Sale at The Assembly Rooms, Edinburgh, which included the work Edinburgh from Corstorphine by Frederick Henry Henshaw. The price achieved of GBP 2,390.00 (€ 3,439.87) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Frederick Henry Henshaw - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Kenilworth Castle from Woodhall Road, Warwickshire, which sold at auction in May 2004 for GBP 6,931.00 (€ 10,399.05).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Oktober 2004 führte Christies in London die Auktion The Scottish Sale at The Assembly Rooms, Edinburgh durch, in der auch die Arbeit Edinburgh from Corstorphine von Frederick Henry Henshaw zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 2.390,00 (€ 3.439,87) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Frederick Henry Henshaw mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Kenilworth Castle from Woodhall Road, Warwickshire beobachtet, die im Mai 2004 für GBP 6.931,00 (€ 10.399,05) versteigert wurde.
