A top price for John Reinhard Weguelin - as previously expected

The work Bacchus And The Choir Of Nymphs 'I Saw Within Remotest Rocks (Believe That Read In After Time) Bacchus Who Taught And Nymphs In Flocks Who Learnt The Lesson Of His Rhyme' by John Reinhard Weguelin was sold in the IMPORTANT BRITISH & IRISH ART auction at Christies in London in June 2001. The price achieved of GBP 91,750.00 (€ 152,415.00) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 80,000.00 – 120,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Bacchus And The Choir Of Nymphs 'I Saw Within Remotest Rocks (Believe That Read In After Time) Bacchus Who Taught And Nymphs In Flocks Who Learnt The Lesson Of His Rhyme' is the most expensive artwork by John Reinhard Weguelin that we have observed at auctions so far.
