Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The artist's wife by David Donaldson was auctioned at Christies in London in October 2004. The price achieved of GBP 3,107.00 (€ 4,471.83) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 2,500.00 – 3,500.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by David Donaldson - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Young girl in an interior, which sold at auction in October 2003 for GBP 10,516.00 (€ 15,359.57).
