Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Jane Wells Loudon could be acquired at Christies in New York in December 2003 for an unexpectedly low price. In the The House Sale auction, the work The Ladies' Flower Garden: Eight Plates changed hands for USD 1,195 (€ 949) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 2,000 – 3,000. Admittedly, works by Jane Wells Loudon have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Ladies' Flower Garden of Ornamental Annuals. London: William Smith, 1840. 4° (270 x 201mm). 48 hand-coloured lithographic plates with over 300 figures of plants by Day & Haghe after Mrs. Loudon. (Occasional light spotting, a few plates with small nick in November 2000 with an auction result of GBP 3,760 (€ 6
