The Christie's London Old Masters Evening Sale achieved £12,712,000 (all prices inc. commission) tonight with a sell-through rate of 67.74% / 63.63% including withdrawn lots.
The selling lots did hit most of their expected values. The highlights that performed well against their pre-sale estimates were Gerrit Dou's Flute Player which realised £3,832,000 over its £2m - £3m estimate, two of William Hodges' Indian scenes did well realising £571,500 and £139,700 over their estimates respectively, a theatrical Charles-Antoine Coypel which made £482,600 over its £250k - £350k estimate and a rather evocative Bonington marine which realised £889,000 over its £400k - £600k estimate.
