Baroness Thyssen sells ‘The Lock’ JOHN CONSTABLE’S depiction of Suffolk rural life ‘The Lock’, part of Baroness Thyssen’s collection, sold at auction at Christie’s in London for €27.9 million. It was purchased by an anonymous buyer, who made it one of the most expensive British paintings ever sold. Despite Thyssen-Bornemisza Collection Foundation trustees’ protests, the baroness has a right to
sell up to 10 per cent of the value of her collection, and ‘The Lock’ is only worth 4.5 per cent. Due to her publicly renowned lack of liquidity, the baroness had previously tried to sell it to the Spanish Government and to her stepdaughter/foundation trustee Francesca Thyssen-Bornemisza, but neither took up the offer.
