Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Apples, grapes, plums and strawberries on a mossy bank by George Clare was sold in the British and Victorian Pictures auction at Christies in London in December 2006. The result of GBP 3,000.00 (€ 4,452.38) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by George Clare - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Strawberries, apples, plums, and grapes in a wicker basket, on a mossy bank, which sold at auction in May 2002 for GBP 6,462.50 (€ 10,120.36).
