The work The start of a voyage by Margaret Dovaston was sold in the Christie's Interiors auction at Christies in London in May 2010. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 2,000.00 (€ 2,343.28), 33% above the upper estimate.

Oberer Schätzpreis um 33 % übertroffen

Die Arbeit The start of a voyage von Margaret Dovaston wurde im Mai 2010 in der Auktion Christie's Interiors bei Christies in London versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 2.000,00 (€ 2.343,28) und damit 33% über dem oberen Schätzpreis.
