Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Charles Halkerston achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in November 2011. In the Victorian & British Impressionist Art auction, the work Studying the old authors; and The antiquarian sold for GBP 2,000.00 (€ 2,334.80) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 800.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Charles Halkerston; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot View from the studio window at Buccleuch Place sold at auction in November 2011 with the realized price of GBP 2,750.00 (€ 3,210.34).
