The work Harter Tor, Dartmoor by Charles Edward Brittan was auctioned at Christies in London in September 2001. It achieved a price of GBP 705.00 (€ 1,138.27), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 41%. 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).
