A top price for John James Halls - as previously expected

The work Portrait of Vice-Admiral Sir William H. Essington, K.C.B, half-length, in full naval uniform, wearing his insignia of the Knight Commander of the Order of the Bath and the gold medal for the battle of Camperdown, with his naval sword tucked under his by John James Halls was sold in the Maritime auction at Christies in New York in February 2004. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 8,000.00 – 12,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 8,962.50 (€ 7,204.00) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Portrait of Vice-Admiral Sir William H. Essington, K.C.B, half-length, in full naval uniform, wearing his insignia of the Knight Commander of the Order of the Bath and the gold medal for the battle of Camperdown, with his naval sword tucked under his is the most expensive artwork by John James Halls that we have observed at auctions so far.
