Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A great spotted woodpecker; and A bullfinch on blackthorn by Philip Rickman was sold in the Sporting Art and Dogs auction at Christies in London in November 2002. The price achieved of GBP 587.50 (€ 919.99) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 500.00 – 800.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Philip Rickman - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Landscape studies: A covey of grouse above moorland, Eskhill; A capercaillie in flight among pines, Montreithment Moor; Blackgame in a landscape, between Forfar and Blhy; Pheasant in clearing, which sold at auction in December 2017 for GBP 2,500.00 (€ 2,813.38).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
