Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Thomas Panton's 'Conqueror', ridden by a groom in the Panton livery, with Looby being led in exercise beyond, on Newmarket Heath by James Seymour was sold in the Old Masters Part II auction at Christies in July this year. The price achieved of GBP 126,000.00 (€ 147,003.81) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 100,000.00 – 150,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by James Seymour - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Lord Portmore's 'Snap', a saddled chestnut hunter held by a groom, with a setter in a landscape, which sold at auction in July 2021 for GBP 275,000.00 (€ 322,494.52).

Die Arbeit Thomas Panton's 'Conqueror', ridden by a groom in the Panton livery, with Looby being led in exercise beyond, on Newmarket Heath von James Seymour wurde im Juli diesen Jahres in der Auktion Old Masters Part II bei Christies versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 126.000,00 (€ 147.003,81) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 100.000,00 – 150.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von James Seymour mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Lord Portmore's 'Snap', a saddled chestnut hunter held by a groom, with a setter in a landscape beobachtet, die im Juli 2021 für GBP 275.000,00 (€ 322.494,52) versteigert wurde.
