Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Cornfield, near Lewes, Sussex by Robert Thorne Waite was sold in the British and Continental Watercolours including Original Book auction at Christies in London in December 2004. It changed hands for a price of GBP 1,434.00 (€ 2,029.51) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 1,000.00 – 1,500.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Robert Thorne Waite - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Harvest time, which sold at auction in March 2003 for GBP 3,995.00 (€ 5,787.25).
