Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Portrait of a lady, three-quarter length, seated in a white silk dress by John Opie was sold in the THE HOUSE SALE auction at Christies in New York in February 2005. The price achieved of USD 5,040.00 (€ 3,796.90) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Admittedly, works by John Opie have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Portrait Of Sir James Earle, Half-Length, Seated, In A Brown Coat And Striped Waistcoat; And Portrait Of Mary, Lady Earle, Half-Length, Seated At A Piano, In A White Dress And A Grey Coat in June 2001 with an auction result of GBP 10,340.00 (€ 17,176.80).
