Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A happy fly-fisherman by Henry Leonidas Rolfe was auctioned at Christies in London in July 2016. The price achieved of GBP 2,500.00 (€ 2,970.54) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Henry Leonidas Rolfe - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Catch, which sold at auction in June 2010 for USD 10,937.00 (€ 8,898.38).
