Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Irish Free State Bacon; and Irish Free State Chicken, original drawings for poster design by Seán Keating was auctioned at Christies in London in May 2007. The price achieved of GBP 36,000.00 (€ 52,976.44) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 30,000.00 – 50,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Seán Keating - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Feast of Bridget, which sold at auction in May 2003 for GBP 139,650.00 (€ 194,567.61).
