was well-attended with a lot of excitement surrounding the auction of the oil sketch
Landscape with Horses
by
John Constable RA (1776-1837).
The sketch went on to realise £252,000 during the auction itself. You can learn

his eye.
Guests were able to view the extensive number of high quality lots while being treated
