The work Portrait of Lucy Celia Ashton (neé Dunn-Gardiner) later Countess of Scarbrough, standing three-quarter-length, in a white decollate dress, with a pearl necklace, holding a spray of yellow roses, in a landscape by Edward Hughes was auctioned at Christies in London in May 2001. It achieved a price of GBP 6,462.50 (€ 10,834.53), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 29%.
