Sold at the lower estimate price
In December 2013 Christies in London held the auction Old Master & British Drawings & Watercolours, which included the work Miss Moore Sewing In Her Bedroom, Hardwick Hall, Derbyshire by William Henry Hunt. The result of GBP 3,000.00 (€ 3,608.53) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Henry Hunt achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Eavesdropper in November 2003 with an auction result of GBP 26,290.00 (€ 37,739.68).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Im Dezember 2013 führte Christies in London die Auktion Old Master & British Drawings & Watercolours durch, in der auch die Arbeit Miss Moore Sewing In Her Bedroom, Hardwick Hall, Derbyshire von William Henry Hunt zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 3.000,00 (€ 3.608,53) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 3.000,00 – 5.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Henry Hunt erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Eavesdropper im November 2003 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 26.290,00 (€ 37.739,68).
