A top price for John Downman - as previously expected
The work Portrait Of Henry Frederick Bouverie And His Sister by John Downman was sold in the Important Old Master Paintings and European Works of Art auction at Sothebys in New York in January 2007. The price achieved of USD 96,000.00 (€ 73,857.52) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 80,000.00 – 120,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Portrait Of Henry Frederick Bouverie And His Sister is the most expensive artwork by John Downman that we have observed at auctions so far.
