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.

Victory's starboard side under fire from Rédoubtable, which sold at auction in May 2004 for GBP 11,950.00 (€ 17,929.40).
