Despite a disappointment, a good price for Albert Victor Ormsby Wood
In October 2006 a collector was able to acquire the work The Croquet Game by Albert Victor Ormsby Wood for USD 19,200.00 (€ 15,031.71). This price was achieved in the auction Orientalist Art, 19th Century European Art at Christies in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00 set by the auction house. Despite this disappointing result, The Croquet Game is the most expensive artwork by Albert Victor Ormsby Wood that we have observed at auction so far.
