Auction result well in line with expectations
The work After the Chukka at Rugby; Polo at Rugby by Henry Frederick Lucas Lucas was sold in the Sporting Art auction at Christies in London in May 2008. The price achieved of GBP 12,500 (€ 15,901) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been given by the auction house as GBP 10,000 - 15,000. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Henry Frederick Lucas Lucas - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Hunting Alphabet A Stands for ATHERSTONE Ladies are few distinguished by wearing the collar of blue. B Stands for BOOT with the Cream coloured top, the pride and the glory of many a Fop. C Stands for CUBBING when foxes abound and they rattl, which sold at auction in December 2006 for USD 72,000 (€
