Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
The work A view on the Tiber looking towards the Palantine Hill with Santa Maria in Cosmedin and the Temple of Vesta by Penry Williams was worth GBP 10,000.00 (€ 12,160.93) to a buyer in June 2010. This price was achieved in the auction Victorian and British Impressionist Art at Christies in London and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of GBP 3,000.00 many times over. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Penry Williams - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Mass for the Reapers, which sold at auction in June 2000 for GBP 16,450.00 (€ 26,075.28).
