Despite a disappointment, a good price for John Baptist Malchair
This work of art by John Baptist Malchair could be acquired at Christies in London in November 2006 for an unexpectedly low price. In the British Art on Paper auction, the work Distant View of Oxford From Hinksey changed hands for GBP 1,440.00 (€ 2,138.45) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 1,500.00 – 2,000.00.
