Sold at the lower estimate price
The work A view in Leicestershire with a church, possibly Melton Mowbray, in the distance by William Tomkins was sold in the Old Master & 19th Century Paintings, Drawings & Watercolours (Day Sale) auction at Christies in London in December 2010. The result of GBP 25,000.00 (€ 28,999.92) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 25,000.00 – 35,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by William Tomkins - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A View of Boldreview Lodge With A Hunting Party, Cattle, Horses, Deer And Other Figures In The Foreground, The New Forest Beyond, which sold at auction in May 2005 for GBP 52,800.00 (€ 77,949.37).
