Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
The work Uncertain weather, Sark by William Arthur Toplis was worth GBP 3,000.00 (€ 3,585.00) to a buyer in November 2010. This price was achieved in the auction The Collection of the Late John Appleby: A Channel Island Treasure House at Christies in London and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of GBP 800.00 many times over. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by William Arthur Toplis - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Creux Harbour, Sark, which sold at auction in November 2010 for GBP 8,125.00 (€ 9,709.36).
