In March 2002 Christies in London held the auction British, Victorian and Scottish Pictures including Pictures, which included the work Haystack, Inver by James Lawton Wingate. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 822.50 (€ 1,344.57), 65% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by James Lawton Wingate have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Villa Limonaia From Villa Ombrellino, Bellosguardo, Near Florence in December 2007 with an auction result of GBP 8,750.00 (€ 11,889.77).

Im März 2002 führte Christies in London die Auktion British, Victorian and Scottish Pictures including Pictures durch, in der auch die Arbeit Haystack, Inver von James Lawton Wingate zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 822,50 (€ 1.344,57) und damit 65% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von James Lawton Wingate auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Villa Limonaia From Villa Ombrellino, Bellosguardo, Near Florence im Dezember 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 8.750,00 (€ 11.889,77).
