Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The proposal; and The scandal by Henry Andrews was auctioned at Christies in London in June 2004. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 8,000.00 – 12,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 8,365.00 (€ 12,449.63) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Henry Andrews - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A fête champêtre, with courtly figures dancing, which sold at auction in June 2002 for GBP 16,730.00 (€ 25,877.52).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit The proposal; and The scandal von Henry Andrews kam im Juni 2004 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 8.000,00 – 12.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 8.365,00 (€ 12.449,63) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Henry Andrews mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A fête champêtre, with courtly figures dancing beobachtet, die im Juni 2002 für GBP 16.730,00 (€ 25.877,52) versteigert wurde.
