A top price for Johann Zoffany - as previously expected
The work The Garden At Hampton House, With Mr And Mrs David Garrick Taking Tea; And The Shakespeare Temple At Hampton House, With Mr And Mrs David Garrick by Johann Zoffany was sold in the Old Master and British Paintings Evening Sale auction at Sothebys in London in December 2011. The price achieved of GBP 6,761,250.00 (€ 8,097,551.93) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 6,000,000.00 – 8,000,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, The Garden At Hampton House, With Mr And Mrs David Garrick Taking Tea; And The Shakespeare Temple At Hampton House, With Mr And Mrs David Garrick is the most expensive artwork by Johann Zoffany that we have observed at auctions so far.
