Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In November 2006 Christies in London held the auction British Art on Paper, which included the work The Poet In The Flames of First Love by Henry John Stock. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 3,500.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 3,840.00 (€ 5,702.52). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Henry John Stock achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Uplifting of Psyche 'By the help of a divinity not our own' - Virgil in June 2015 with an auction result of GBP 56,250.00 (€ 79,311.79).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im November 2006 führte Christies in London die Auktion British Art on Paper durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Poet In The Flames of First Love von Henry John Stock zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 3.500,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 3.840,00 (€ 5.702,52) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Henry John Stock erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Uplifting of Psyche 'By the help of a divinity not our own' - Virgil im Juni 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 56.250,00 (€ 79.311,79).
