A top price for Hilton Lark Pratt - as previously expected
In November 2001 Christies in London held the auction Sporting Art and Dogs, which included the work Trimmed and spurred fighting cocks by Hilton Lark Pratt. The price achieved of GBP 2,350.00 (€ 3,739.59) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Trimmed and spurred fighting cocks is the most expensive artwork by Hilton Lark Pratt that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im November 2001 führte Christies in London die Auktion Sporting Art and Dogs durch, in der auch die Arbeit Trimmed and spurred fighting cocks von Hilton Lark Pratt zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 2.350,00 (€ 3.739,59) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Trimmed and spurred fighting cocks das teuerste Kunstwerk von Hilton Lark Pratt, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
