The »bidding war« ended at GBP 1,020.00 (€ 1,475.92), 70% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by A. Roland Knight have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Perch; Salmon and Trout; Roach; Pike; Barbel and Chub; and Trout -the first leap in June 2004 with an auction result of GBP 9,560.00 (€ 14,228.14).
