Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Men-o'war caught in a violent storm by Thomas Allen was sold in the Victorian, Pre-Raphaelite & British Impressionist Art, Maritime Art, Sporting & Wildlife Art auction at Christies in London in July 2016. The price achieved of GBP 17,500.00 (€ 20,793.79) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 15,000.00 – 20,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Thomas Allen - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Flotilla Carrying Princess Charlotte To England For Her Marriage To King George III, 1761, which sold at auction in November 2004 for GBP 38,240.00 (€ 55,008.03).
