The work View of the Ponta Reale, Valletta, Malta by Charles Frederick de Brocktorff was sold in the Travel, Science & Natural History auction at Christies in London in September 2008. It achieved a price of GBP 6,000.00 (€ 7,586.39), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 50%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Charles Frederick de Brocktorff - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Camelopard - A Present From The Pacha Of Egypt To The King - At Malta On Its Way To England, which sold at auction in November 2020 for GBP 15,000.00 (€ 16,745.06).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 50 % übertroffen
