Auction result misses estimated price range
In August 2007 a collector was able to acquire the work Australian Four Decorative Wood Panels by George Lambert for AUD 22,800.00 (€ 13,633.87). This price was achieved in the auction Important Australian Art Including Selected International Works at Sothebys in Melbourne and was even below the estimate range of AUD 25,000.00 – 35,000.00 set by the auction house. Admittedly, works by George Lambert have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work A View Of Fonthill, Wiltshire, With Haymakers In The Foreground in June 2001 with an auction result of GBP 71,950.00 (€ 119,523.27).
