Auction result well in line with expectations
The work From Balmoral Looking Towards North Head, Sydney by John William Ashton was auctioned at Christies in Sydney in August 2004. The price achieved of AUD 10,755.00 (€ 6,242.19) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as AUD 9,000.00 – 12,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by John William Ashton - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Neutral Bay, Sydney Harbour, which sold at auction in November 2000 for AUD 32,900.00 (€ 19,912.56).
