Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Portrait of Sir Charles Morgan (1760-1846), Seated Three-Quarter-Length, In A Black Suit, Holding A Letter In His Right Hand by Henry William Pickersgill was auctioned at Christies in London in March 2005. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 2,160.00 (€ 3,145.82) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Henry William Pickersgill - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work L'improvisatrice, which sold at auction in July this year for GBP 10,240.00 (€ 11,946.98).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Portrait of Sir Charles Morgan (1760-1846), Seated Three-Quarter-Length, In A Black Suit, Holding A Letter In His Right Hand von Henry William Pickersgill kam im März 2005 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 2.160,00 (€ 3.145,82) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Henry William Pickersgill mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit L'improvisatrice beobachtet, die im Juli diesen Jahres für GBP 10.240,00 (€ 11.946,98) versteigert wurde.
