Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A collection of four figure studies by William Henry Hunt was sold in the Old Master & British Works on Paper auction at Sothebys in London in July 2021. The price achieved of GBP 1,638.00 (€ 1,920.89) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 1,500.00 – 2,000.00. 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).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit A collection of four figure studies von William Henry Hunt wurde im Juli 2021 in der Auktion Old Master & British Works on Paper bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 1.638,00 (€ 1.920,89) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 1.500,00 – 2.000,00 angegeben worden. 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).
