Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Bedtime by Mabel Lucie Attwell was sold in the Christie's Interiors auction at Christies in London in December 2012. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 1,000.00 – 1,500.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 1,125.00 (€ 1,387.44) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by Mabel Lucie Attwell have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work We're going on a ride on dear old quack - all the way there and all the way back. in June 2002 with an auction result of GBP 5,287.50 (€ 8,178.57).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Bedtime von Mabel Lucie Attwell wurde im Dezember 2012 in der Auktion Christie's Interiors bei Christies in London versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 1.000,00 – 1.500,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 1.125,00 (€ 1.387,44) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Mabel Lucie Attwell auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit We're going on a ride on dear old quack - all the way there and all the way back. im Juni 2002 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 5.287,50 (€ 8.178,57).
