Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Catherine (1811-1873), Countess of Bandon (née Whitmore), facing right in low-cut blue velvet dress with lace underdress, her dark brown hair dressed in ringlets; her sister, Emily Elizabeth Wilmot (b. 1815) (née Whitmore), facing right in low-cut by William Maw Egley was auctioned at Christies in London in June 2003. It achieved a price of GBP 956.00 (€ 1,373.82), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 20%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Maw Egley achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Catherine of Aragon in June 2002 with an auction result of GBP 20,315.00 (€ 31,422.70).
