Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Faithful companions by Horatio Henry Couldery was sold in the Sporting Art, Wildlife & Dogs auction at Christies in London in November 2007. The price achieved of GBP 5,000.00 (€ 7,001.29) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Horatio Henry Couldery - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Exemplary behavior, which sold at auction in December 2008 for USD 37,500.00 (€ 26,941.59).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Faithful companions von Horatio Henry Couldery wurde im November 2007 in der Auktion Sporting Art, Wildlife & Dogs bei Christies in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 5.000,00 (€ 7.001,29) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Horatio Henry Couldery mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Exemplary behavior beobachtet, die im Dezember 2008 für USD 37.500,00 (€ 26.941,59) versteigert wurde.
