Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Opening the Fold, or Early Morning (Lister 13) by Samuel Palmer was auctioned at Bonhams in London in November 2021. The price achieved of GBP 637.50 (€ 748.48) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 500.00 – 700.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Samuel Palmer achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A Shepherd leading his flock under the full moon in July 2021 with an auction result of GBP 1,588,000.00 (€ 1,862,259.27).
