Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A young gentleman, facing right in red-bordered blue jacket, red cloak draped over his left shoulder, open white shirt, moustache, half-beard and curling brown hair; sky background by Alfred Edward Chalon was auctioned at Christies in London in June 2003. The price achieved of GBP 239.00 (€ 343.46) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 200.00 – 300.00. Admittedly, works by Alfred Edward Chalon have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Ballerinas of the last century: "The Three Graces" - Marie Taglioni, Carlotta Grisi and Amalia Ferraris in December 2004 with an auction result of GBP 1,792.50 (€ 2,536.88).
