Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work A September morning by Charles Edward Brittan was auctioned at Christies in London in March 2002. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 500.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 528.75 (€ 864.37). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Charles Edward Brittan - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Sheep grazing on the moors below low-lying clouds (illustrated); and Dusk, on the moors, which sold at auction in September 2005 for GBP 1,560.00 (€ 2,289.41).
