Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The Grand National, 1915, At the 5th fence; and At the last jump by John Beer was auctioned at Christies in London in June 2004. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 1,000.00 – 1,500.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 1,075.50 (€ 1,600.67) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by John Beer have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Miss Dollar Wins, Royal Handicap, Sandown Park; Freemason Wins, Sandown Park; Leaving the Paddock, Sandown Park; Parade, Sandown Park in May 2000 with an auction result of GBP 6,462.50 (€ 10,369.93).
