Auction result well in line with expectations
In November 2008 Sothebys in London held the auction A GREAT BRITISH COLLECTION: The pictures collected by Sir David and Lady Scott, sold to benefit the Finnis Scott Foundation, which included the work Returning From The Fields by William Edward Millner. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 6,000.00 – 8,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 6,250.00 (€ 7,556.72) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Other works by William Edward Millner have already achieved higher auction prices, for example, in November 2008 the work The Postman was auctioned for GBP 12,500.00 (€ 15,113.44).
