Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Mr Arthur Edward Guest, 'A South Western Director' Yachtsman by Leslie Matthew Ward was auctioned at Christies in London in December 2005. The price achieved of GBP 1,440.00 (€ 2,090.08) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 1,200.00 – 1,800.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Leslie Matthew Ward achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Earl of Darnley, 'Ivo' Cricketer in December 2005 with an auction result of GBP 18,000.00 (€ 26,125.99).
