A top price for Adolphe Yvon - as previously expected
The work The departure of the chief by Adolphe Yvon was sold in the 19th Century European Art including Orientalist and Spanish Art auction at Christies in London in July 2008. The price achieved of GBP 91,250.00 (€ 115,934.15) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 70,000.00 – 100,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, The departure of the chief is the most expensive artwork by Adolphe Yvon that we have observed at auctions so far.
