Auction result well in line with expectations
The work J-class yachts racing off Cowes by Michael James Whitehand was auctioned at Christies in London in May 2007. The price achieved of GBP 3,120.00 (€ 4,591.29) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 2,500.00 – 3,500.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Michael James Whitehand - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Ailsa and Britannia racing at the Royal Clyde Yacht Club Regatta, which sold at auction in July 2004 for USD 19,120.00 (€ 15,890.96).
