Despite a disappointment, a good price for Theodore Blake Wirgman
In December 2002 a collector was able to acquire the work Mother and child amongst at the edge of a wood by Theodore Blake Wirgman for GBP 376.00 (€ 577.18). This price was achieved in the auction British Art on Paper including Original Book Illustrations at Christies in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 400.00 – 600.00 set by the auction house. Despite this disappointing result, Mother and child amongst at the edge of a wood is the most expensive artwork by Theodore Blake Wirgman that we have observed at auction so far.
Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Theodore Blake Wirgman
Im Dezember 2002 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Mother and child amongst at the edge of a wood von Theodore Blake Wirgman für GBP 376,00 (€ 577,18) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion British Art on Paper including Original Book Illustrations bei Christies in London erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 400,00 – 600,00. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist Mother and child amongst at the edge of a wood das teuerste Kunstwerk von Theodore Blake Wirgman, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
