Despite a disappointment, a good price for Helena Maguire
When the work Portrait of A Boy, Three-Quarter-Length, With His Dog by Helena Maguire was auctioned at Christies in London in June 2005, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 300.00 – 400.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 180.00 (€ 266.77). Despite this disappointing result, Portrait of A Boy, Three-Quarter-Length, With His Dog is the most expensive artwork by Helena Maguire that we have observed at auction so far.
Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Helena Maguire
Als die Arbeit Portrait of A Boy, Three-Quarter-Length, With His Dog von Helena Maguire im Juni 2005 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 300,00 – 400,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 180,00 (€ 266,77) den Besitzer. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist Portrait of A Boy, Three-Quarter-Length, With His Dog das teuerste Kunstwerk von Helena Maguire, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
