Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Syracuse by Henry Wallis was sold in the An Aesthetic Odyssey: The Peter Rose and Albert Gallichan Collection auction at Christies in September 2021. The price achieved of GBP 3,750.00 (€ 4,363.18) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Henry Wallis achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Dr Johnson At Cave'S, The Publisher. Johnson, Too Ragged To Appear At Cave'S Table, Has A Plate Of Victuals Sent To Him Behind The Screen. Vide Boswell in November 2008 with an auction result of GBP 39,650.00 (€ 47,939.83).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Syracuse von Henry Wallis wurde im September 2021 in der Auktion An Aesthetic Odyssey: The Peter Rose and Albert Gallichan Collection bei Christies versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 3.750,00 (€ 4.363,18) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Henry Wallis erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Dr Johnson At Cave'S, The Publisher. Johnson, Too Ragged To Appear At Cave'S Table, Has A Plate Of Victuals Sent To Him Behind The Screen. Vide Boswell im November 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 39.650,00 (€ 47.939,83).
