Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Travellers surveying a mountain pass by Raphael Lamar West was sold in the British Works on Paper auction at Christies in London in November 2007. The result of GBP 3,000.00 (€ 4,200.78) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Raphael Lamar West - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work View of Honeoye Lake, Ontario County, New York State, which sold at auction in November 2007 for GBP 6,875.00 (€ 9,626.78).
