This artwork by Anne Mee achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in November 2000. In the IMPORTANT PORTRAIT MINIATURES, GOLD BOXES & OBJECTS OF VERTU auction, the work A young lady, full face in white dress, gold bordered white scarf tied as a turban in her dark brown hair sold for GBP 2,350.00 (€ 3,840.98) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 900.00.
