Posted by Adam Busiakiewicz:
The aforementioned pair of Johann Zoffanys soared past their £300k - £500k estimate at Bonhams today to realise £991,000 (including premium). They did look absolutely fantastic in the preview of the sale earlier this week and will undoubtedly clean beautifully once careful conservation reveals their original colours underneath that yellowed varnish. We shall wait and see if they turn up anywhere interesting!
