Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Ambleside Mill, Westmoreland, Cumbria by Alfred William Hunt was auctioned at Christies in London in July 2016. The result of GBP 5,000.00 (€ 5,941.08) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 5,000.00 – 8,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Alfred William Hunt achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work 'When the leaves begin to turn' in June 2004 with an auction result of GBP 52,580.00 (€ 78,254.79).
