Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Spring time; and Returning home at dusk by Henry Maurice Page was auctioned at Christies in London in April 2003, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 400.00 – 600.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 352.50 (€ 459.28). Admittedly, works by Henry Maurice Page have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Mallard At Dawn in April 2006 with an auction result of USD 3,840.00 (€ 3,041.83).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Spring time; and Returning home at dusk von Henry Maurice Page im April 2003 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 400,00 – 600,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 352,50 (€ 459,28) den Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Henry Maurice Page auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Mallard At Dawn im April 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 3.840,00 (€ 3.041,83).
