Upper estimate price exceeded by 63 %.
The work The Chase; And The Trophy Pen (Illustrated) by Samuel Howitt was sold in the British Art on Paper auction at Christies in London in June 2005. It achieved a price of GBP 4,080.00 (€ 6,046.82), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 63%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Samuel Howitt - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A pair of tigers, which sold at auction in September 2000 for GBP 11,162.50 (€ 18,678.27).
