Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The Schooner Yacht America Racing For The Hundred Guinea Cup, 22Nd August, 1851 by William Bishop was auctioned at Christies in London in November 2006. It changed hands for a price of GBP 4,560.00 (€ 6,771.74) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by William Bishop - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Battle of Trafalgar, 21st October, 1805 - H.M.S. Victory's starboard side under fire from Rédoubtable, which sold at auction in May 2004 for GBP 11,950.00 (€ 17,929.40).
