In July 2009 Sothebys in London held the auction Early British Paintings, which included the work The Young Angler by Henry Walton. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 46,850.00 (€ 53,160.71), 56% above the upper estimate. This high result makes The Young Angler the most expensive artwork by Henry Walton that we have observed at auctions so far.
