The same vendor was selling a Frances Hodgkins work of a Fisherman's Cottage, which featured in the Antiques Trade Gazette 'Highest Price Over Estimate' Section of the paper. It was estimated at £30-40 at Nesbits in Southsea, selling for £1,250. It was listed at $18,000 on Trade Me, but failed to find a buyer last night.
The Charles Blomfield featured in the Waikato Times has failed to sell on Trade Me for $45,000. The work was featured above in Dunbar Sloane's November 2016 Fine Art Catalogue with an estimate of $20,000 - $30,000. It failed to sell then, the vendor claiming the Wellington earthquake was a mitigating factor in this. It is unclear why the Dunbar and Trade Me estimates were so far apart.
