Two ladies at dusk in the garden of a large house by Louis H Grimshaw – £6200 at Canterbury Auction Galleries.
This 11 x 18in (28 x 46cm) oil on canvas of two ladies at dusk in the garden of a large house – possibly the Grimshaw family home of Knostrop Hall – shows how closely his works resembled those of his father’s.
Signed and dated 1898, some five years after his father’s death, the painting came from an east Kent estate and sold to a phone bidder from Worcestershire for £6200 against an estimate of £3000-4000 at Canterbury Auction Galleries (20% buyer’s premium) on November 26.
