Auction result well in line with expectations
In March 2014 Christies in London held the auction Victorian & British Impressionist Art, which included the work Waiting For The Blessing Of Pope Pius Ix At St John Lateran, Rome by Keeley Halswelle. The price achieved of GBP 37,500.00 (€ 45,388.15) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 30,000.00 – 50,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Keeley Halswelle - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Play Scene in Hamlet Hamlet: He poisons him i' the garden for his estate. His name's Gonzago: this story is extant, and written in very choice Italian: you shall see anon, how the murder gets the love of Gonzago's wife. Ophelia: The king rises H, which sold at auction in February 2003 for GBP 116,650.00 (€ 170,305
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im März 2014 führte Christies in London die Auktion Victorian & British Impressionist Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Waiting For The Blessing Of Pope Pius Ix At St John Lateran, Rome von Keeley Halswelle zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 37.500,00 (€ 45.388,15) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 30.000,00 – 50.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Keeley Halswelle mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Play Scene in Hamlet Hamlet: He poisons him i' the garden for his estate. His name's Gonzago: this story is extant, and written in very choice Italian: you shall see anon, how the murder gets the love of Gonzago's wife. Ophelia: The king rises H beobachtet, die im Februar 2003 für GBP 116.650,00 (€ 170.305,32) versteigert wurde.
