The work Figures resting in the Turkish cemetary, Ayoub, the city of Constantinople and the Bosphorus beyond by Edmund Thomas Parris was sold in the Old Master & Early British Drawings & Watercolours auction at Christies in London in December 2011. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 2,750.00 (€ 3,293.51), 38% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Edmund Thomas Parris - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Four Seasons, which sold at auction in June 2008 for GBP 8,125.00 (€ 10,270.27).
