Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Portrait of a gentleman, standing full length in a landscape, wearing a brown coat and white cravat by Adam Buck was auctioned at Christies in London in September 2001. The price achieved of GBP 1,175.00 (€ 1,897.12) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 1,000.00 – 1,500.00. Admittedly, works by Adam Buck have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work A Naval Officer holding his sword under his right arm, facing right in blue coat with black facings, yellow trousers, frilled cravat and black stock, powdered hair en queue in May 2002 with an auction result of GBP 5,975.00 (€ 9,356.93).
