Auction result well in line with expectations

In May 2007 Christies in London held the auction British, Continental & Russian Pictures & Prints, which included the work Departing from home; and The woodsman by Henry Charles Woollett. It changed hands for a price of GBP 960.00 (€ 1,412.70) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 600.00 – 1,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Henry Charles Woollett achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Horsemarket at Ashby-de-la-Zouch in December 2005 with an auction result of USD 16,800.00 (€ 14,186.79).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im Mai 2007 führte Christies in London die Auktion British, Continental & Russian Pictures & Prints durch, in der auch die Arbeit Departing from home; and The woodsman von Henry Charles Woollett zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von GBP 960,00 (€ 1.412,70) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 600,00 – 1.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Henry Charles Woollett erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Horsemarket at Ashby-de-la-Zouch im Dezember 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 16.800,00 (€ 14.186,79).
