Sold at the lower estimate price
In July 2007 Christies in London held the auction British and Continental Watercolours and Original Book Illustrations, which included the work Chartres, France by Henry Schäfer. The result of GBP 300.00 (€ 445.57) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 300.00 – 400.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Henry Schäfer achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Luys near Morlaix, Britanny; and Eveux, Normandy in May 2002 with an auction result of GBP 3,760.00 (€ 5,888.21).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Im Juli 2007 führte Christies in London die Auktion British and Continental Watercolours and Original Book Illustrations durch, in der auch die Arbeit Chartres, France von Henry Schäfer zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 300,00 (€ 445,57) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 300,00 – 400,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Henry Schäfer erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Luys near Morlaix, Britanny; and Eveux, Normandy im Mai 2002 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 3.760,00 (€ 5.888,21).
