Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In March 2007 Christies in London held the auction British & Continental Watercolours & Maritime Paintings, which included the work Deep in thought by the water fountain by Henry Parsons Riviere. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 300.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 336.00 (€ 494.55). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Henry Parsons Riviere achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Gioie domestiche nella Campagna romana in November 2005 with an auction result of EUR 4,960.00.
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im März 2007 führte Christies in London die Auktion British & Continental Watercolours & Maritime Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit Deep in thought by the water fountain von Henry Parsons Riviere zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 300,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 336,00 (€ 494,55) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Henry Parsons Riviere erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Gioie domestiche nella Campagna romana im November 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 4.960,00.
