Numerous works by the artist have been sold at auction, including 'Hms Challenger Dredging the Sea Behind' sold at Christie's New York 'Maritime' in 2006 for $15,600.
Whitehand’s style and the quality of his work is reminiscent of Montague Dawson. Just as with Dawson, Whitehand has succeeded in creating atmosphere, excitement and realistic images.
