Artwork auctioned at four times the upper estimate price
The work Portrait Of A Young Gentleman, Half-Length, In A Green Coat With A White Waistcoat And Stock by Adam Buck was worth GBP 3,250.00 (€ 4,416.20) to a buyer in December 2007. This price was achieved in the auction The Sunday Sale at Christies in London and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of GBP 800.00 many times over. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Adam Buck - we have observed the highest auction result to date for 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, which sold at auction in May 2002 for GBP 5,975.00 (€ 9,356.93).
