Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In May 2004 Christies in London held the auction British and Victorian Paintings, which included the work In Galloway, near Wigton by John Henry Boel. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 597.50 (€ 896.47), 20% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by John Henry Boel - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A Highland cascade, which sold at auction in March 2004 for GBP 1,912.00 (€ 2,862.09).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Mai 2004 führte Christies in London die Auktion British and Victorian Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit In Galloway, near Wigton von John Henry Boel zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 597,50 (€ 896,47) und damit 20% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von John Henry Boel mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A Highland cascade beobachtet, die im März 2004 für GBP 1.912,00 (€ 2.862,09) versteigert wurde.
