A top price for George Henry Andrews - as previously expected
In May 2010 Christies in London held the auction Maritime Art, which included the work An emigrant ship preparing to depart, her decks crowded with passengers and with onlookers to see her off by George Henry Andrews. The result of GBP 2,500.00 (€ 2,929.10) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 2,500.00 – 3,500.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, An emigrant ship preparing to depart, her decks crowded with passengers and with onlookers to see her off is the most expensive artwork by George Henry Andrews that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im Mai 2010 führte Christies in London die Auktion Maritime Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit An emigrant ship preparing to depart, her decks crowded with passengers and with onlookers to see her off von George Henry Andrews zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 2.500,00 (€ 2.929,10) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 2.500,00 – 3.500,00. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist An emigrant ship preparing to depart, her decks crowded with passengers and with onlookers to see her off das teuerste Kunstwerk von George Henry Andrews, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
