Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Views of Ghazipur and Lucknow including; The gateway to the Chalis Satun (illustrated); The Naubat Khana of the Chalis Satun; The Panch Mahal; and The bridge over the river Gumti by Edward Hawke Locker was auctioned at Christies in London in September 2000. The price achieved of GBP 2,350.00 (€ 3,932.27) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Edward Hawke Locker - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Views of southern India including; St. Thomé Chapel, Madras; View on the road from St. Thomé Chapel to Brodie Castle; and Muslim buildings near Madras (illustrated), which sold at auction in September 2000 for GBP 5,875.00 (€ 9,830.67).
