Interior scene with figures luncheoning by Albert Chevallier Tayler – £27,000 at Roseberys.
One of the highest prices for Albert Chevallier Tayler (1862-1925) at a UK auction in the last 10 years was achieved at Roseberys’ (25% buyer’s premium) latest picture sale when a late Victorian ‘period’ scene attracted multiple bidders.
Interior scene with figures luncheoning, a 18¼ x 21¾in (46.5 x 55cm) oil on canvas, was regarded as a fine example of the artist’s earlier figurative work, showing the influence of James Tissot in style and composition.
