Upper estimate price exceeded by 73 %.

The work Study of Lilies for May Morning on Magdalen Tower by William Holman Hunt was auctioned at Sothebys in London in July 2021. It achieved a price of GBP 13,860.00 (€ 16,253.72), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 73%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Holman Hunt achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Tuscan Girl Plaiting Straw in December 2013 with an auction result of GBP 3,330,500.00 (€ 4,006,074.97).
