A top price for Vernon Ward - as previously expected
The work Light in the dale, widgeons rising from a pool by Vernon Ward was sold in the Sporting Art and Dogs auction at Christies in London in November 2002. The price achieved of GBP 1,057.50 (€ 1,655.99) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 800.00 – 1,200.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Light in the dale, widgeons rising from a pool is the most expensive artwork by Vernon Ward that we have observed at auctions so far.
