This artwork by Andrew Nicholl achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in October 2019. In the Topographical Pictures including Selections from the Kelton Collection auction, the work Abhayagiri Dagoba in Anuradhapura, Sri Lanka sold for GBP 11,250.00 (€ 13,049.19) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 5,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Andrew Nicholl - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Poppies, cornflowers and daisies on Killiney Hill; Killiney Bay, Bray Head and the Sugar Loaf mountain in the distance, which sold at auction in May 2000 for GBP 21,150.00 (€ 33,937.95).
