Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Perspective Drawing of the Anatomical School, Queen Margaret College, University of Glasgow by Charles Rennie Mackintosh was auctioned at Sothebys in London in November 2021. The price achieved of GBP 50,400.00 (€ 59,174.34) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 40,000.00 – 60,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Charles Rennie Mackintosh - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A Hill Town in Southern France, which sold at auction in October 2004 for GBP 94,850.00 (€ 136,515.24).
