Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Portrait Of A Woman Washing Clothes, Possibly Maria, Countess Of Coventry by Henry Robert Morland was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in January 2017, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 17,500.00 (€ 16,212.71). Admittedly, works by Henry Robert Morland 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 Laundry Maidengraved: Philip Dawe (See. J.C. Smith, British Mezzotinto Portraits, 1884, Vol. I, P. 158, No. 22). in January 2010 with an auction result of USD 110,500.00 (€ 79,668.35).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Portrait Of A Woman Washing Clothes, Possibly Maria, Countess Of Coventry von Henry Robert Morland im Januar 2017 bei Sothebys in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 20.000,00 – 30.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 17.500,00 (€ 16.212,71) den Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Henry Robert Morland auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit The Laundry Maidengraved: Philip Dawe (See. J.C. Smith, British Mezzotinto Portraits, 1884, Vol. I, P. 158, No. 22). im Januar 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 110.500,00 (€ 79.668,35).
