JC Harrison Sale

A week ago I posted news of the Bonhams London auction of the Andrewartha Collection of avian paintings by John Cyril Harrison, which begins at 11am on 25 January (CLICK). Today BBC News posted a slide show of some of these magnificent watercolours (title link). Above is Morning Flight, estimated value £3,000 to £5,000. When you think that crap by Picasso sells for millions, these bird paintings are cheap, cheap, cheap. The entire collection of 100 paintings is worth about £300,000. This is real art, not gimmicky tripe that befuddles ignorant punters into thinking they're avant-garde. CLICK to register to bid in Bonhams sale room.
