A top price for John Spencer Churchill - as previously expected
The work Portrait of Sir Winston Churchill by John Spencer Churchill was auctioned at Christies in London in March 2003. The price achieved of GBP 2,585.00 (€ 3,744.69) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Portrait of Sir Winston Churchill is the most expensive artwork by John Spencer Churchill that we have observed at auctions so far.
