A top price for William Westall - as previously expected

The work Entrance of The Great Cave Temple of Elephanta, Near Bombay by William Westall was auctioned at Christies in London in July 2006. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 3,360.00 (€ 4,918.65) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Entrance of The Great Cave Temple of Elephanta, Near Bombay is the most expensive artwork by William Westall that we have observed at auctions so far.
