Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Kew Grey, 'Alba' No.1 by John Walker was auctioned at Bonhams in London in December 2020. The price achieved of GBP 4,080.00 (€ 4,557.72) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by John Walker - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Oceania III, which sold at auction in November 2000 for USD 9,987.50 (€ 11,487.81).
