Despite a disappointment, a good price for James Craig Annan
This work of art by James Craig Annan could be acquired at Sothebys in London in May 2008 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Photographs auction, the work Portraits And Landscapes, 1840S changed hands for GBP 11,875.00 (€ 15,105.52) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 12,000.00 – 15,000.00. Despite this disappointing result, Portraits And Landscapes, 1840S is the most expensive artwork by James Craig Annan that we have observed at auction so far.
