A FORMER Bradford art student will see one of his paintings auctioned at the Paris branch of leading auction house Christie’s.

Professional artist Christopher Dunn painted the picture as one of several for a commission by the city’s Galerie Daniel Maghen.

Saturday’s auction will be Christopher’s first with Christie’s, and his picture is one of 446 lots gathering together the greatest characters in the history of comic strips.

Christopher’s watercolour, entitled Big Station, is one of several to illustrate The Wind In The Willows.
