This artwork by Adolphe Weisz achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in London in May 2008. In the European Paintings including German, Austrian & Central European Paintings and The Orientalist Sale auction, the work French Her Favourite Pet sold for GBP 19,700.00 (€ 25,059.26) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 8,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Adolphe Weisz - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work L'Odalisque, which sold at auction in December 2003 for GBP 50,190.00 (€ 71,087.56).
