A top price for Alfred Buckham - as previously expected
The work 'Westminster, Shewing The Houses Of Parliament And Westminster Abbey', C. 1925 by Alfred Buckham was auctioned at Sothebys in London in November 2008. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 3,125.00 (€ 3,778.36) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, 'Westminster, Shewing The Houses Of Parliament And Westminster Abbey', C. 1925 is the most expensive artwork by Alfred Buckham that we have observed at auctions so far.
