The work Portrait of a William Muerdie Esq., small quarter-length, in a black coat, a coat-of-arms beyond by William Logsdail was sold in the British and Victorian Paintings auction at Christies in London in May 2005. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 1,080.00 (€ 1,594.42), 54% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Logsdail achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Gates Of The Khalifa, Cairo in October 2019 with an auction result of GBP 200,000.00 (€ 231,985.66).
