Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Henry Brittan Willis achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in January 2007. In the The Lyndon Goodwin Harris Collection of Watercolours by Albert Goodwin, Joseph Edward Southall & Other Artists auction, the work Cowdray Marsh, Midhurst sold for GBP 720.00 (€ 1,086.31) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 300.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Henry Brittan Willis achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Ploughman'S Team in December 2007 with an auction result of GBP 14,900.00 (€ 20,246.57).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen

In der Auktion The Lyndon Goodwin Harris Collection of Watercolours by Albert Goodwin, Joseph Edward Southall & Other Artists wurde die Arbeit Cowdray Marsh, Midhurst für GBP 720,00 (€ 1.086,31) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 300,00.

Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Ploughman'S Team im Dezember 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 14.900,00 (€ 20.246,57).
