The work Gulls on the shoreline by William Langley was sold in the BRITISH AND CONTINENTAL PICTURES auction at Christies in London in August 2005. It achieved a price of GBP 660.00 (€ 964.15), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 32%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by William Langley - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Highland cattle watering in a mountainous landscape, which sold at auction in September 2001 for GBP 1,880.00 (€ 3,035.40).
