The work Standing Stone, Zennor; Volcano And Moon; Rocky Landscape; Towednack, Cornwall; And Helterskelter by John Christopherson was auctioned at Christies in London in December 2007. It achieved a price of GBP 1,625.00 (€ 2,208.10), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 63%. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by John Christopherson; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Moonlit Grove 2 55 x 43cm (21 5/8 x 16 15/16in) unframed sold at auction in April this year with the realized price of GBP 3,187.50 (€ 3,632.71).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 63 % übertroffen
