Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work The Duet: Portraits of Alexandra, daughter of Rev. G. Kitchin and Winifrid, daughter of the painter by Henry James Holiday was sold in the British and European Art auction at Christies in London in December 2020. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 15,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 16,250.00 (€ 18,152.70). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Henry James Holiday - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Sara, belle d'indolence, which sold at auction in December 2020 for GBP 55,000.00 (€ 61,439.90).
