In December 2010 Christies in London held the auction Victorian & British Impressionist Pictures Including Drawings and Watercolours, which included the work Clerk Saunders by Elizabeth Siddal. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 6,500.00 (€ 7,539.98), 30% above the upper estimate. Other works by Elizabeth Siddal have achieved even higher prices, we observed the highest auction result so far of GBP 5,640.00 (€ 9,218.36) in November 2000 for the work Study for The Ladies' Lament from the ballad of 'Sir Patrick Spens'; and two studies for La Belle Dame sans merci (illustrated).
