Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Uncle Dick's Fish House by William Lester Stevens was auctioned at Christies in New York in July 2002. It changed hands for a price of USD 5,736.00 (€ 5,855.45) 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).
