A top price for Henry Charles Fox - as previously expected
The work A shepherd driving sheep down a country lane with the harvesters beyond by Henry Charles Fox was auctioned at Christies in London in May 2000. The price achieved of GBP 1,762.50 (€ 2,828.16) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 1,500.00 – 2,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, A shepherd driving sheep down a country lane with the harvesters beyond is the most expensive artwork by Henry Charles Fox that we have observed at auctions so far.
