Auction result well in line with expectations
The work An Extensive View Of Thebes, Greece by Hugh William Williams was auctioned at Sothebys in London in July 2017. It changed hands for a price of GBP 7,500.00 (€ 8,368.85) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 6,000.00 – 8,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Hugh William Williams achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work An extensive view of the Acropolis and Athens, Greece, with the Herodeion Atticon below in July 2011 with an auction result of GBP 157,250.00 (€ 180,467.90).
