Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Grande Place, Mons with the Church of Elizabeth by Henry Martens was auctioned at Christies in London in October 2007. The price achieved of GBP 400.00 (€ 574.43) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 300.00 – 500.00. Admittedly, works by Henry Martens have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The cavalry regiments: The 2nd Dragoon Guards (The Royal Scots Greys) and the 19th Lancers at a mounted review, circa 1850 in November 2010 with an auction result of GBP 3,250.00 (€ 3,883.75).
