Auction result well in line with expectations
The work New England Village in Winter by William Lester Stevens was auctioned at Christies in New York in February 2002. It changed hands for a price of USD 5,875.00 (€ 6,785.63) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by William Lester Stevens - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Logging, which sold at auction in November 2001 for USD 16,450.00 (€ 18,363.47).
