Auction result well in line with expectations
The work ‘Mr Gladstone’S New House’ by Harry Furniss was sold in the The Political Cartoon Collection of Jeffrey Archer auction at Sothebys in London in March 2018. The price achieved of GBP 688.00 (€ 783.33) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 600.00 – 800.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Harry Furniss - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Gladstone At The Despatch Box, which sold at auction in March 2018 for GBP 1,500.00 (€ 1,707.83).
