THIS 19th century Anglo-Indian School study of breadfruit topped Harry Moore-Gwyn’s 25 Blythe Road (20% buyer’s premium plus VAT) sale of British and Continental pictures and prints on January 25.
The 14½ x 19in (37 x 48cm) watercolour was consigned from a private source and sold to the British trade at £3200 at the West Kensington auction, four times the top estimate.
“Anglo-Indian School pieces of this period and quality continue to attract a lot of attention,” said Harry Moore-Gwyn.
