Upper estimate price exceeded by 33 %.
In September 2018 Sothebys in London held the auction Irish Art, which included the work Windy Day, Co. Kerry by Paul Henry. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 200,000.00 (€ 224,625.71), 33% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Paul Henry - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Mountains and Lake, Connemara, which sold at auction in July 2021 for GBP 622,500.00 (€ 730,010.33).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 33 % übertroffen
Im September 2018 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Irish Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Windy Day, Co. Kerry von Paul Henry zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 200.000,00 (€ 224.625,71) und damit 33% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Paul Henry mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Mountains and Lake, Connemara beobachtet, die im Juli 2021 für GBP 622.500,00 (€ 730.010,33) versteigert wurde.
