Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
The work Massa Out. "Sambo Werry Dry" by Henry James Pidding was worth GBP 937.50 (€ 1,057.00) to a buyer in February 2009. This price was achieved in the auction British Mezzotints & Printed Hankerchiefs, Part II, from the collection of the Honourable Christopher Lennox-Boyd at Christies in London and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of GBP 250.00 many times over. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Henry James Pidding achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Figures playing baccarat in a gaming room in June 2000 with an auction result of GBP 23,500.00 (€ 37,250.39).
