Upper estimate price exceeded by 31 %.
The work A storm on the Ganges, with a Bengal country boat in a swell by William Hodges was sold in the Topographical Pictures including Selections from the Kelton Collection auction at Christies in London in October 2019. It achieved a price of GBP 26,250.00 (€ 30,448.12), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 31%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Hodges achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Matavie Bay in the Island of Otaheite (Matavai Bay, Tahiti) in October 2019 with an auction result of GBP 659,250.00 (€ 764,682.72).
