A top price for August Wilhelm Leu
In December 2003 Christies in London held the auction 19TH CENTURY EUROPEAN ART, which included the work A View Of The Amalfi Coast by August Wilhelm Leu. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 25,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 28,082.50 (€ 39,775.18). With this result, A View Of The Amalfi Coast is even the most expensive work of art by August Wilhelm Leu that we have observed at auctions so far.
