It achieved a price of GBP 10,625.00 (€ 12,288.94), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 33%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by William Armstrong - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work On the Kaministiquoia River, Lake Superior, which sold at auction in September 2010 for GBP 22,500.00 (€ 26,023.64).
