Estimate: 600 - 800 GBP
Price realised: 1.625 GBP
John A. Blakey (b.1952)
Portrait of the artist's mother
signed and dated 'John A. Blakey '91' (lower right)
watercolour
19¼ x 15¼ in. (49 x 38.6 cm.)

Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%

This artwork by John A. Blakey achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in December 2012. In the Peter Langan: A Life with Art auction, the work Portrait of the artist's mother sold for GBP 1,625.00 (€ 2,004.08) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 800.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by John A. Blakey; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot The happy grocer sold at auction in December 2012 with the realized price of GBP 2,750.00 (€ 3,391.51).

Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen

In der Auktion Peter Langan: A Life with Art wurde die Arbeit Portrait of the artist's mother für GBP 1.625,00 (€ 2.004,08) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 800,00.

Blakey; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit The happy grocer im Dezember 2012 mit dem Hammerpreis von GBP 2.750,00 (€ 3.391,51).
