Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Resting palanquin-bearers, near the Guindy Palace by John Gantz was auctioned at Christies in London in September 2003. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 4,182.50 (€ 4,212.92) could thus just exceed the lower estimate.
