A top price for Wilhelm Hensel - as previously expected

The work Israelite Shepherdess in the Land of Goshen by Wilhelm Hensel was auctioned at Christies in London in November 2013. It changed hands for a price of GBP 32,500.00 (€ 39,109.40) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 25,000.00 – 35,000.00.
