In November 2011 Christies in London held the auction Maritime Art, which included the work A frigate heeling in the breeze in the Channel by David Dalby. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 1,000.00 (€ 1,167.40), 25% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by David Dalby achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Jerry, winner of the 1824 St. Leger, with Ben Smith up, by a post at Doncaster in November 2002 with an auction result of GBP 9,560.00 (€ 14,970.47).

Im November 2011 führte Christies in London die Auktion Maritime Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit A frigate heeling in the breeze in the Channel von David Dalby zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 1.000,00 (€ 1.167,40) und damit 25% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von David Dalby erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Jerry, winner of the 1824 St. Leger, with Ben Smith up, by a post at Doncaster im November 2002 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 9.560,00 (€ 14.970,47).
