Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The fountain at Groombridge Place, Kent (illustrated); and The walled garden by Thomas Henry Hunn was auctioned at Christies in London in April 2003. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 500.00 – 700.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 528.75 (€ 688.93) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Thomas Henry Hunn - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Archusa Italica, Dropmore, Clandon Park, which sold at auction in September 2004 for GBP 1,075.50 (€ 1,566.87).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit The fountain at Groombridge Place, Kent (illustrated); and The walled garden von Thomas Henry Hunn kam im April 2003 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 500,00 – 700,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 528,75 (€ 688,93) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Thomas Henry Hunn mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Archusa Italica, Dropmore, Clandon Park beobachtet, die im September 2004 für GBP 1.075,50 (€ 1.566,87) versteigert wurde.
