Camilla oil painting fails to sell on eBay
Published October 24th, 2005
Owner Nick Peto was hoping to flog it for £10,000 on eBay, but the bidding dried up at a more modest £720.Mr Peto, 65, a retired Army captain, said: “It’s always hung on the top landing, along with a lot of other rather rubbishy paintings. I suspect it’s the only oil painting ever done by Camilla. “The reserve price is £10,000. She must be worth that.”Mr Peto, from Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire, swapped the painting for a cashmere jumper when the pair met back in 1995.
