A top price for Henry Crowther - as previously expected
The work Wizard of Walmsley by Henry Crowther was sold in the Sporting Art and Dogs auction at Christies in London in November 2005. The price achieved of GBP 1,200.00 (€ 1,762.95) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 1,000.00 – 1,500.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Wizard of Walmsley is the most expensive artwork by Henry Crowther that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit Wizard of Walmsley von Henry Crowther wurde im November 2005 in der Auktion Sporting Art and Dogs bei Christies in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 1.200,00 (€ 1.762,95) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 1.000,00 – 1.500,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Wizard of Walmsley das teuerste Kunstwerk von Henry Crowther, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
