The work Seven maritime sketches by Henry Moore, R.A. was sold in the Victorian, Pre-Raphaelite and British Impressionist Art auction at Christies in London in July 2016. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 21,250.00 (€ 25,249.60), 42% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Henry Moore, R.A. achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Family Group in June last year with an auction result of GBP 315,000.00 (€ 365,940.40).

Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 21.250,00 (€ 25.249,60) und damit 42% über dem oberen Schätzpreis.
