Auction result well in line with expectations
In December 2017 Christies in London held the auction Victorian Pre-Raphaelite & British Impressionist Art, which included the work Illustration For Wagner'S Centenary Programme At The Royal Albert Hall, 1913: 'The Ride Of The Valkyries' by Henry James Holiday. The price achieved of GBP 4,000.00 (€ 4,501.41) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Henry James Holiday achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Sara, belle d'indolence in December 2020 with an auction result of GBP 55,000.00 (€ 61,439.90).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Dezember 2017 führte Christies in London die Auktion Victorian Pre-Raphaelite & British Impressionist Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Illustration For Wagner'S Centenary Programme At The Royal Albert Hall, 1913: 'The Ride Of The Valkyries' von Henry James Holiday zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 4.000,00 (€ 4.501,41) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Henry James Holiday erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Sara, belle d'indolence im Dezember 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 55.000,00 (€ 61.439,90).
