Artwork auctioned at four times the upper estimate price
The work Study of a Dog's Head 15 x 10 1/4 in. (38.0 x 26.0 cm) framed 19 3/4 x 15 x 1 3/4 in. by John Emms was worth USD 7,650.00 (€ 7,036.42) to a buyer in March this year. This price was achieved in the auction European Art | Bonhams Skinner at Bonhams and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of USD 1,800.00 many times over. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Emms achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work British the Kennel Club: Saladin, Witchcraft, Champion, Stately, Ladye, Dusty; Old Faithfuls: Sally, Graff..., Gorgius, Rockwood, Bell... (Two Works) in May 2012 with an auction result of USD 554,500.00 (€ 448,479.46).
