A top price for James Warren Childe

When the work Admiral John Jarvis Tucker, in dress uniform of blue coat with gold-bordered white facings and gold epaulettes; sky background by James Warren Childe was auctioned at Christies in London in July 2004, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 1,200.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at GBP 4,541.00 (€ 6,862.45). This high result makes Admiral John Jarvis Tucker, in dress uniform of blue coat with gold-bordered white facings and gold epaulettes; sky background the most expensive artwork by James Warren Childe that we have observed at auctions so far.
