A top price for William E. Harris
In January 2001 Christies in London held the auction BRITISH AND CONTINENTAL PAINTINGS, which included the work A summer's day by the lock, possibly the Thames by William E. Harris. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 2,820.00 (€ 4,427.23), 28% above the upper estimate. With this result, A summer's day by the lock, possibly the Thames is even the most expensive work of art by William E. Harris that we have observed at auctions so far.
