Auction result well in line with expectations
In November 2006 Christies in London held the auction Maritime & Naval Battles (Pictures), which included the work The Cross-Channel Paddlesteamer Rouen Leaving Newhaven For Dieppe by George Mears. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 2,160.00 (€ 3,207.67) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Other works by George Mears have already achieved higher auction prices, for example, in November 2006 the work A Racing Cutter of The Royal Thames Yacht Club On An Upwind Leg (Illustrated); And On A Downwind Leg was auctioned for GBP 2,640.00 (€ 3,920.48).
