Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Henry John Sylvester Stannard could be acquired at Christies in London in December 2008 for an unexpectedly low price. In the British Art on Paper auction, the work In a hayfield, near Wantage, Oxfordshire changed hands for GBP 3,750.00 (€ 3,938.59) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 5,000.00 – 7,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Henry John Sylvester Stannard - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Playing marbles, which sold at auction in March 2002 for GBP 5,875.00 (€ 9,604.08).
