Artwork auctioned at four times the upper estimate price
The work Evening on the Thames by Walter Greaves was worth USD 13,750.00 (€ 9,544.63) to a buyer in August 2011. This price was achieved in the auction Christie's Interiors at Christies in New York and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of USD 3,000.00 many times over. Admittedly, works by Walter Greaves have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work James Abbott McNeill Whistler on the Widow's Walk at his House in Lindsey Row, Chelsea in June 2003 with an auction result of GBP 59,750.00 (€ 85,864.00).
