Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In March 2001 Christies in London held the auction Objects of Vertu and Miniatures, which included the work A lady called Mrs. Robert Colquhoun (née Marchesa Bradura-Manin), in a blue dress with lace sleeves, wearing a lace bonnet with blue ribbon tied under her chin, seated in a crimson chair holding an open book; in an interior by Christina Robertson. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 600.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 611.00 (€ 985.91). Admittedly, works by Christina Robertson have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Portrait Of A Lady in November 2017 with an auction result of GBP 4,750.00 (€ 5,391.96).
