In October 2000 Christies in London held the auction OLD MASTER PICTURES, which included the work Portrait of Auguste Vestris, three-quarter-length, in a dark grey velvet jacket and a fur hat, a cane in his right hand, standing before a landscape by Adèle Romany. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 16,450.00 (€ 28,117.75), 37% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Adèle Romany - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Portrait d'Amélie-Justine et de Charles-Edouard Pontois, which sold at auction in June 2008 for EUR 90,500.00.

Im Oktober 2000 führte Christies in London die Auktion OLD MASTER PICTURES durch, in der auch die Arbeit Portrait of Auguste Vestris, three-quarter-length, in a dark grey velvet jacket and a fur hat, a cane in his right hand, standing before a landscape von Adèle Romany zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 16.450,00 (€ 28.117,75) und damit 37% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Adèle Romany mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Portrait d'Amélie-Justine et de Charles-Edouard Pontois beobachtet, die im Juni 2008 für EUR 90.500,00 versteigert wurde.
