The work Sheep Resting In The Sunshine by Charles James Adams was sold in the British and Continental Watercolours auction at Christies in London in March 2006. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 2,160.00 (€ 3,094.89), 20% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Charles James Adams - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Cattle Warming Themselves On A Summer'S Day; And Wintertime, Cattle By A Fence (Illustrated), which sold at auction in November 2006 for GBP 6,600.00 (€ 9,801.21).
