Auction result well in line with expectations
In September this year Bonhams in London held the auction Blazing a TrailModern British Women, which included the work Swing Boats by Therese Lessore. The price achieved of GBP 896.00 (€ 896.00) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 700.00 – 1,000.00. Admittedly, works by Therese Lessore have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Orchestra in March 2017 with an auction result of GBP 5,000.00 (€ 5,859.51).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im September diesen Jahres führte Bonhams in London die Auktion Blazing a TrailModern British Women durch, in der auch die Arbeit Swing Boats von Therese Lessore zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 896,00 (€ 896,00) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 700,00 – 1.000,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Therese Lessore auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit The Orchestra im März 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 5.000,00 (€ 5.859,51).
