A top price for Ernest Borough Johnson - as previously expected
The work Portrait of the artist and his dog by Ernest Borough Johnson was sold in the British & European Art: Victorian, Pre-Raphaelite & British Impressionist Art auction at Christies in London in July 2019. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 6,000.00 – 8,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 6,250.00 (€ 6,862.08) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Portrait of the artist and his dog is the most expensive artwork by Ernest Borough Johnson that we have observed at auctions so far.
