This artwork by George Arnald achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in October 2011. In the Old Masters & 19th Century Art auction, the work A classical landscape with Dido and Aeneas sheltering from the storm, Carthage beyond sold for GBP 10,000.00 (€ 11,573.10) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 5,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by George Arnald - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Ruins of Glastonbury Abbey, With Figures And Livestock In The Foreground, And Glastonbury Tor Beyond, which sold at auction in November 2006 for GBP 24,000.00 (€ 35,640.75).

Dieses Kunstwerk von George Arnald erzielte im Oktober 2011 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Old Masters & 19th Century Art wurde die Arbeit A classical landscape with Dido and Aeneas sheltering from the storm, Carthage beyond für GBP 10.000,00 (€ 11.573,10) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 5.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von George Arnald mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Ruins of Glastonbury Abbey, With Figures And Livestock In The Foreground, And Glastonbury Tor Beyond beobachtet, die im November 2006 für GBP 24.000,00 (€ 35.640,75) versteigert wurde.
