Upper estimate price exceeded by 100 %.

This artwork by Lawson Wood achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in December 2001. In the BRITISH AND CONTINENTAL DRAWINGS AND WATERCOLOURS AND ILLUST auction, the work "Here begineth the first lesson" sold for GBP 1,997.50 (€ 3,263.64) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 1,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Lawson Wood; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Gran'pop starts a poultry farm sold at auction in December 2002 with the realized price of GBP 3,525.00 (€ 5,411.05).
