Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Never a trouble - never a care - just bobbing about any ol' where by Mabel Lucie Attwell was sold in the ORIGINAL ILLUSTRATIONS AND PRINTED BOOKS auction at Christies in London in December 2000. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 700.00 – 1,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 705.00 (€ 1,123.06) 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 Never a trouble - never a care - just bobbing about any ol' where von Mabel Lucie Attwell wurde im Dezember 2000 in der Auktion ORIGINAL ILLUSTRATIONS AND PRINTED BOOKS bei Christies in London versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 700,00 – 1.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 705,00 (€ 1.123,06) 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).
