Auction result well in line with expectations

The work A French dragoon on horseback; and A Prussian Uhlan lancer by Eugène-François Fines was auctioned at Christies in London in March 2007. The price achieved of GBP 1,200.00 (€ 1,766.26) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 1,000.00 – 1,500.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Eugène-François Fines - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work La Moisson, which sold at auction in March 2005 for GBP 4,560.00 (€ 6,641.17).
