Sold at the lower estimate price
The work The Lion Rock, Cheddar Gorge, Somerset by John Frederick Tennant was sold in the British & Continental Paintings auction at Sothebys in London in October 2007. The result of GBP 3,000.00 (€ 4,308.20) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 3,000.00 – 4,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by John Frederick Tennant - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A Hunting Party In An Extensive Landscape, which sold at auction in December 2007 for GBP 7,500.00 (€ 10,191.23).
