A top price for William Gawin Herdman - as previously expected
The work In Edinburgh, the High Street, Leith Wynd and Canongate by William Gawin Herdman was auctioned at Christies in London in March 2003. It changed hands for a price of GBP 1,997.50 (€ 2,893.63) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 1,500.00 – 2,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, In Edinburgh, the High Street, Leith Wynd and Canongate is the most expensive artwork by William Gawin Herdman that we have observed at auctions so far.
