Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The Quorn Hunt in Full Cry, with Lord Rancliffe, Mr Francis Holyoake, Mr James Maxse on 'Cognac', Lord Elcho, Captain Horatio Ross, Mr John Ferneley, Mr Valentine Mayer, Sir Harry Goodriche and Squire Osbaldeston by John Ferneley, Sen. was auctioned at Christies in London in December 2019. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 100,000.00 – 150,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 112,500.00 (€ 132,961.83) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by John Ferneley, Sen. have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Silver firs at Osberton in May 2007 with an auction result of GBP 692,000.00 (€ 1,018,324.83).
