Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Mildred E. Eldridge could be acquired at Christies in London in July 2021 for an unexpectedly low price. In the British and European Art auction, the work Studies of wood mice and a squirrel, with insects changed hands for GBP 1,000.00 (€ 1,172.71) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 1,500.00 – 2,000.00. Admittedly, works by Mildred E. Eldridge have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Hare, Drawn At Aberdaron, Gwynedd in December 2017 with an auction result of GBP 7,500.00 (€ 8,440.15).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Mildred E. Eldridge konnte im Juli 2021 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion British and European Art wechselte die Arbeit Studies of wood mice and a squirrel, with insects für GBP 1.000,00 (€ 1.172,71) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 1.500,00 – 2.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Mildred E. Eldridge auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Hare, Drawn At Aberdaron, Gwynedd im Dezember 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 7.500,00 (€ 8.440,15).
