In June 2001 Christies in London held the auction SPORTING ART & DOGS, which included the work Solway Silhouettes; And Dusk On The Solway Marsh by Hugh Monahan. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 2,585.00 (€ 4,294.20), 29% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Hugh Monahan - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Pintail, Lough Gara, Co. Sligo (illustrated); and Greylags, Lough Gara, which sold at auction in May 2001 for GBP 5,287.50 (€ 8,864.61).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 29 % übertroffen
Im Juni 2001 führte Christies in London die Auktion SPORTING ART & DOGS durch, in der auch die Arbeit Solway Silhouettes; And Dusk On The Solway Marsh von Hugh Monahan zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 2.585,00 (€ 4.294,20) und damit 29% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Hugh Monahan mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Pintail, Lough Gara, Co. Sligo (illustrated); and Greylags, Lough Gara beobachtet, die im Mai 2001 für GBP 5.287,50 (€ 8.864,61) versteigert wurde.
