This artwork by Bryan de Grineau achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in October 2014. In the Christie's Interiors auction, the work Skiing in St Moritz, that's the way the money goes in Switzerland to-day: How British visitors spend their £75 quota sold for GBP 2,000.00 (€ 2,553.71) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 1,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Bryan de Grineau - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work I Spy Strangers: Churchill, which sold at auction in March 2018 for GBP 5,000.00 (€ 5,692.78).
