Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Portrait of Mr Godolphin in the uniform of an Officer of the Honourable East India Company, standing small three-quarter length, the Madras waterfront beyond; and Portrait of Mrs Godolphin, standing small three-quarter length in a garden with hollyhocks, by William Havell was auctioned at Christies in London in October 2015. It changed hands for a price of GBP 2,750.00 (€ 3,846.56) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00.
