A top price for James Fenwick Lansdowne

In November 2006 Christies in London held the auction Sporting Art, Wildlife and Dogs, which included the work A Yellow Hammer Perched By Some Gorse by James Fenwick Lansdowne. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 1,320.00 (€ 1,960.24), 32% above the upper estimate. With this result, A Yellow Hammer Perched By Some Gorse is even the most expensive work of art by James Fenwick Lansdowne that we have observed at auctions so far.

Mit diesem Ergebnis ist A Yellow Hammer Perched By Some Gorse sogar das teuerste Kunstwerk von James Fenwick Lansdowne, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
