Auction result well in line with expectations

In January 2008 Christies in London held the auction The Sunday Sale - Property from the Collection of the Late J.S.Goddard, removed from Camp Hill, Baldwin Estate, Staffordshire, which included the work The Old Lee Farm by John Eyre. The price achieved of GBP 475.00 (€ 636.76) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 400.00 – 600.00. Admittedly, works by John Eyre have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Great Hall, Royal Hospital, Chelsea in July 2007 with an auction result of GBP 2,400.00 (€ 3,564.55).
