A top price for George William Horlor - as previously expected
The work The day's bag by George William Horlor was sold in the THE SCOTTISH SALE, THE ASSEMBLY ROOMS, EDINBURGH auction at Christies in London in October 2003. The price achieved of GBP 45,410.00 (€ 66,325.43) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 40,000.00 – 60,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, The day's bag is the most expensive artwork by George William Horlor that we have observed at auctions so far.
