The Lawrence of Arabia watch was sold for 9000 Pounds and then in 2000 it was purchased by Omega for 86,000 Swiss Francs which is was something like 79,000 Pounds at the time. It's now part of Omegas Museum.
My first dog was a wire haired fox terrier. What a beautiful piece of work and such vitality. These were merry little chaps and the artist has captured that brilliantly.
My fur baby, Leon is a wire fox terrier. He’s 8 years old, a man unto himself, such a character and so smart (sometimes too smart). He is the love of our lives.
My 96 year old dad had a rescue fox terrier named Rex. He loved to swim and if dad tossed a pebble into the sea, Rex would jump in, and dive for it. Retrieving the very stone ! He hated being bathed though. When my mum told him "You need a bath", he'd snore like a saw mill. Dead to the world... 🧺🐶 zzzzZZZZZ Love from Norway 👩🦳🇧🇻
My first dog was also a wire haired fox terrier named Benny. Funny photo exists somewhere in the family albums of my brother pushing them around in a pram haha.
There's so much going on in the two pools of candlelight in the final painting--all the mysterious , slightly hidden/revealed emotions & human dynamics on display. And then when the camera moves closer to the canvas you realize there are MANY little pools of candlelight in the background of the painting as well, with so many more little human moments hinted at. It's such a beautiful & evocative painting, all the little worlds shining out from the darkness down at the quayside.

My father made that very skeleton clock. He was an antique dealer in the North. He employed 2 clockmaker, Stuart and Richard. They stripped fusee driven clocks, single, and double fusee, school clocks, Station clocks etc and made the frames. An old guy near New Mills made the chapter rings, silvered and enamal, his trade was an engraver. Most were put into London auction rooms, Christie's, Sothebys etc, they were catalogued as Victorian, after all they were the experts. So if you have a very nice victoriana skeleton clock, it might not be. As a side note, they were made in the celler of a large detached house in Devonshire Park Road, Stockport.
This is completely remarkable!! What a true master clockmaker, horologist, I've just discovered the proper name for these super clever people!! What a chance of coming across your father's clock! Just incredible Do you make clocks as well? 😊
There was time when I did not understand how someone would pay vast amounts of money for a painting. That stopped when I stood .. and stood .. and looked with wonder at a 16th century Flemish landscape at a Dallas art museum. I remember thinking that .. I could imagine hanging it on a wall ... and for the next 70 years I would stop every time I passed to admire it. This painting gives me that same feeling.
@@eTraxx for me it was seeing Van Gogh works on the TV and Liberty Leading the People in real life. Van Gogh is still my favourite artist today and I plan to visit the museum dedicated to him soon
When I first saw the painting of the terrier, I thought it was real--but no--then a beautiful stuffed toy. A painting never entered my mind. It's absolutely excellent.
15:50 is the most realistic, 3D looking dog, looking as if he were ready to jump out, as the lady said. Just remarkable what people can do with their hands and a bit of paint. But we have never even heard of this painter. Arthur is so beautiful indeed.
I’ve never understood paintings and their value. In terms of art, music has always been my thing, functional art (furniture, instuments, watches) too. That is the first painting that made me feel something. That use of moonlight was so realistic. What a beautiful piece.
He wouldn't have dropped it, I'm sure... What surprised me was that he didn't realize the cat/dog creature was a monkey ! They do have wild monkeys in Northern Japan. Known for enduring the winter cold by taking baths in the natural hot springs... 🙉💦
We've seen Lawrence's watch three times in these highlight clips. Thanks for that information. He went in as Aircraftman Ross before adopting Charlotte Shaw's surname.
I know it might sound a little contrary but I would dread to be in the shoes of the lady at the end with the Dutch painting - finding out that something is worth that much can't help but affect how you relate to it and rather spoils the joy of having it.
Imagine watching an Antique Roadshow from 1885 where an art expert says to an owner of 5 paintings by Vincent Van Gogh, "Congratulations on owning these wonderful paintings. They're probably worth collectively as much as 70 pounds"! How times have changed.
The British version of this program really underestimates the value of some splendid items like the watch and the Chaumet French ruby/diamond brooch. The Dutch oil painting was probably close to the value at the time but at some point, at a good suction house, could be valued over $250,000 to 500,000 today because of the inflated market -?and I think Dutch master oils are going up again. I watch lots of Sotheby and Christie’s auctions. Also the dog, Arthur, painting was quite special.
Would love to see Julian Baumgartner get his hands on that painting to restore it. Remove the dirt and cruddy old varnish to show what it looked like when it was painted years ago.

For heaven's sake Lisa! It's a typical Victorian Romantic style painting. All the happy and clean peasants and workers you see in Victorian paintings weren't that happy or CLEAN in real life either. Of course you are correct, but it's ALL artistic license. ; D
The first appraiser is an absolute fool! He's touching and handling the object while saying how delicate and fragile the gold is! It's pathetic what used to qualify as an "expert".
I love the little old biddies so much that were on this show lol Yea yea you can see the workings inside, yea yeaaa the paint is nice, yea yea Show me the money
Why can't AQ be like this now. Probably the Woke BBC would consider it too elitist. So what, that is what made it watchable. It is as though all the beautiful furniture described by Arthur Negus had vanished from the face of the earth. Today's productions are pale imitations.
Antique Georgian and Victorian furniture is a bargain currently. The Millenials all want Mid-Century ugliness and stuff that looks like it came from a burned-out warehouse, so get yourself along to a saleroom and grab a bargain.
That painting was so beautiful! The candle lighting and the reflections are so perfect, and it was made in the 18th hundreds, it's insane.
