Auction result well in line with expectations

The work A stroll in the park by François Claudius Compte-Calix was sold in the European Noble and Private Collections auction at Christies in Amsterdam in September 2007. The price achieved of EUR 6,850.00 was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as EUR 6,000.00 – 8,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by François Claudius Compte-Calix - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Le rêve d'amour brisé, which sold at auction in June 2004 for EUR 14,100.00.
