Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Henry Justice Ford achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in London in December 2012. In the The Art of Illustration - From the Collection of Michael Winner auction, the work "Among The Flowers Were Lovely Maidens Calling To Him With Soft Voices" sold for GBP 1,875.00 (€ 2,312.40) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 800.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Henry Justice Ford achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Blue Parrot in December 2020 with an auction result of GBP 25,000.00 (€ 27,927.23).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Henry Justice Ford erzielte im Dezember 2012 bei Sothebys in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion The Art of Illustration - From the Collection of Michael Winner wurde die Arbeit "Among The Flowers Were Lovely Maidens Calling To Him With Soft Voices" für GBP 1.875,00 (€ 2.312,40) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 800,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Henry Justice Ford erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Blue Parrot im Dezember 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 25.000,00 (€ 27.927,23).
