Sold at the lower estimate price
The work The Tea Trolley by William Leech was sold in the A Living Legacy: Irish Art from the Collection of Brian P. Burns auction at Sothebys in London in November 2018. The result of GBP 50,000.00 (€ 56,398.48) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 50,000.00 – 70,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by William Leech - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A Shining Palace, which sold at auction in May 2000 for GBP 102,750.00 (€ 164,875.86).
