Auction result well in line with expectations

The work The river valley at Bonneville with the Savoy Alps behind by William Pars was sold in the 300 Years Of British Drawings auction at Christies in London in December 2020. The price achieved of GBP 3,750.00 (€ 4,189.08) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00.
