Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The Battle of Jutland; the height of the action in the early evening of 31st May, 1916 by Frank Watson Wood was sold in the The Marine Sale auction at Bonhams in London in November 2020. The price achieved of GBP 3,570.00 (€ 3,985.32) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00.
