Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work The head of Dovedale, Derbyshire by William Westall was auctioned at Christies in London in November 2001. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 1,200.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 1,292.50 (€ 2,056.77). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by William Westall - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Entrance of The Great Cave Temple of Elephanta, Near Bombay, which sold at auction in July 2006 for GBP 3,360.00 (€ 4,918.65).
