Upper estimate price exceeded by 33 %.
In October 2010 Christies in London held the auction Christie's Interiors, which included the work View of the Artillery Depot at Woolwich by George Bryant Campion. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 1,062.50 (€ 1,225.08), 33% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by George Bryant Campion have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work An exploration vessel anchored in Arctic waters with the crew rowing ashore; and The crew defending themselves from an attack by a polar bear whilst rowing ashore (both illustrated) in November 2010 with an auction result of GBP 6,875.00 (€ 8,215.61).

Im Oktober 2010 führte Christies in London die Auktion Christie's Interiors durch, in der auch die Arbeit View of the Artillery Depot at Woolwich von George Bryant Campion zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 1.062,50 (€ 1.225,08) und damit 33% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von George Bryant Campion auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit An exploration vessel anchored in Arctic waters with the crew rowing ashore; and The crew defending themselves from an attack by a polar bear whilst rowing ashore (both illustrated) im November 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 6.875,00 (€ 8.215,61).
