Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Portrait of Princess Caraboo of Javasu, bust-length, wearing a green cloak by Thomas Barker was sold in the British Pictures 1500-1850 auction at Christies in London in June 2003. It achieved a price of GBP 7,409.00 (€ 10,647.14), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 23%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Thomas Barker - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A Roman Capriccio With Figures, The Colosseum Beyond, which sold at auction in April 2008 for GBP 23,300.00 (€ 29,704.21).

Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 7.409,00 (€ 10.647,14) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 23%. Für andere Arbeiten von Thomas Barker mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A Roman Capriccio With Figures, The Colosseum Beyond beobachtet, die im April 2008 für GBP 23.300,00 (€ 29.704,21) versteigert wurde.
