Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The Summit of Mount Erebus by Edward Adrian Wilson was auctioned at Christies in London in September 2004. The price achieved of GBP 5,019.00 (€ 7,312.05) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Admittedly, works by Edward Adrian Wilson have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The sledge party to White Island, February 1902: Shackleton, Wilson and Ferrar preparing to set out; Shackleton and Wilson making camp in September 2007 with an auction result of GBP 22,100.00 (€ 31,689.77).
