Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In April 2008 Sothebys in London held the auction Important Miniatures from a Private Collection, which included the work Portrait Of An Officer by Thomas Hazlehurst. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 2,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 2,125.00 (€ 2,709.07). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Thomas Hazlehurst - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A young boy, facing left in blue coat, white shirt with frilled collar, long curling fair hair, which sold at auction in May 2002 for GBP 3,585.00 (€ 5,614.16).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im April 2008 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Important Miniatures from a Private Collection durch, in der auch die Arbeit Portrait Of An Officer von Thomas Hazlehurst zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 2.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 2.125,00 (€ 2.709,07) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Thomas Hazlehurst mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A young boy, facing left in blue coat, white shirt with frilled collar, long curling fair hair beobachtet, die im Mai 2002 für GBP 3.585,00 (€ 5.614,16) versteigert wurde.
