This artwork by Arthur Gilbert achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in March 2002. In the British, Victorian and Scottish Pictures including Pictures auction, the work Night, Loch Dhu and the Sligachan Valley sold for GBP 1,410.00 (€ 2,304.98) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 700.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Arthur Gilbert - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The road up Snowdon, North Wales; and Loch Maree, Scotland, which sold at auction in March 2004 for GBP 5,736.00 (€ 8,586.27).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
