Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Fishing boats off a harbour by George Knight was auctioned at Christies in London in November 2000. The price achieved of GBP 822.50 (€ 1,344.34) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 700.00 – 900.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by George Knight - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Heading Out To The Fishing Grounds (Illustrated); And Returning With The Day'S Catch, which sold at auction in November 2004 for GBP 2,629.00 (€ 3,781.80).
