Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Eloisa by Richard Westall was sold in the Important British Paintings auction at Sothebys in London in November 2007. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 6,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 6,500.00 (€ 9,101.68). Admittedly, works by Richard Westall have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Faust and Lilith in December 2012 with an auction result of GBP 55,250.00 (€ 68,138.59).
