Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In June 2000 Christies in London held the auction British Pictures, which included the work A clipper leaving London, with a view of Greenwich beyond by George Webster. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 15,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 15,862.50 (€ 25,144.02). Other works by George Webster have achieved even higher prices, we observed the highest auction result so far of USD 45,600.00 (€ 35,725.48) in July 2006 for the work A thirty gun frigate of the blue squadron off Dover castle in choppy seas.
