A top price for Alexander S. Burns - as previously expected
The work The old aqueduct, Nantes by Alexander S. Burns was sold in the British, Victorian and Scottish Pictures including Pictures auction at Christies in London in March 2002. The price achieved of GBP 411.25 (€ 672.29) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 300.00 – 500.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, The old aqueduct, Nantes is the most expensive artwork by Alexander S. Burns that we have observed at auctions so far.
