A top price for Ben Marshall - as previously expected

The work 'Bravura', an iron-grey filly, with James Robinson up, with her owner Sir Robert Keith Dick, Bt., her trainer mounted on a grey pony to the left, on Newmarket Heath by Ben Marshall was auctioned at Christies in London in July 2021. The auction ended at the price of GBP 200,000.00 (€ 234,541.47), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of GBP 150,000.00 – 200,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, 'Bravura', an iron-grey filly, with James Robinson up, with her owner Sir Robert Keith Dick, Bt., her trainer mounted on a grey pony to the left, on Newmarket Heath is the most expensive artwork by Ben Marshall that we have observed at auctions so far.
