This artwork by Edwin Henry Eugene Fletcher achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in November 2003. In the MARITIME AND NAVAL BATTLES auction, the work Unloading on the river at dusk; and Barges on the river at dusk sold for GBP 1,057.50 (€ 1,518.06) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 600.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Edwin Henry Eugene Fletcher - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Shipping In The Pool of London, which sold at auction in November 2006 for GBP 2,880.00 (€ 4,276.89).
