Auction result well in line with expectations

In April 2015 Christies in London held the auction 19th Century European Art, which included the work The General's dispatch by Henri Victor Lesur. It changed hands for a price of GBP 1,875.00 (€ 2,574.81) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 1,500.00 – 2,000.00. Admittedly, works by Henri Victor Lesur have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work A Promenade in the Gardens in October 2002 with an auction result of USD 16,730.00 (€ 16,931.48).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im April 2015 führte Christies in London die Auktion 19th Century European Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit The General's dispatch von Henri Victor Lesur zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von GBP 1.875,00 (€ 2.574,81) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 1.500,00 – 2.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Henri Victor Lesur auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit A Promenade in the Gardens im Oktober 2002 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 16.730,00 (€ 16.931,48).
