Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Sheep grazing on the Sussex Downs by Frederick Williamson was auctioned at Christies in London in July 2004. The price achieved of GBP 717.00 (€ 1,083.54) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 600.00 – 800.00.
