Artwork auctioned at four times the upper estimate price
The work His Majesty King George III And Officers of State Receiving The Turkish Ambassador And Suite by Mather Brown was worth GBP 22,800.00 (€ 32,991.22) to a buyer in June 2006. This price was achieved in the auction British Art on Paper Including 'The Blue Rigi' by J.M.W. Turner, R.A. at Christies in London and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of GBP 5,000.00 many times over. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Mather Brown - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Portrait of Major Norton, the Mohawk Chief Teyoninhokarawen, which sold at auction in September 2007 for GBP 46,100.00 (€ 66,104.01).
