Sold at the lower estimate price
The work The Frankfield 'showing her number' in rough seas off Table Bay, Cape Town by Samuel Walters was sold in the Lehman Brothers: Artwork and Ephemera auction at Christies in London in September 2010. The result of GBP 15,000.00 (€ 17,349.09) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 15,000.00 – 25,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Samuel Walters - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Confederate blockade runner C.S.S COLONEL LAMB at sea, which sold at auction in February 2004 for USD 77,675.00 (€ 62,434.69).
