A top price for Michael Frederick Halliday - as previously expected
In June 2002 Christies in London held the auction VICTORIAN PICTURES, which included the work Portrait of a Girl, adorned with cowslips, bluebells and a daisy by Michael Frederick Halliday. The price achieved of GBP 9,560.00 (€ 14,787.16) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 8,000.00 – 12,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Portrait of a Girl, adorned with cowslips, bluebells and a daisy is the most expensive artwork by Michael Frederick Halliday that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im Juni 2002 führte Christies in London die Auktion VICTORIAN PICTURES durch, in der auch die Arbeit Portrait of a Girl, adorned with cowslips, bluebells and a daisy von Michael Frederick Halliday zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 9.560,00 (€ 14.787,16) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 8.000,00 – 12.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Portrait of a Girl, adorned with cowslips, bluebells and a daisy das teuerste Kunstwerk von Michael Frederick Halliday, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
