Sold at the upper estimate price
The work Birds Of Paradise, New Guinea by Marian Ellis Rowan was auctioned at Sothebys in London in November 2008. The auction ended at the price of GBP 3,500.00 (€ 4,231.76), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of GBP 2,500.00 – 3,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Marian Ellis Rowan achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Decorated Screen with Wildflowers, c.1880 in November 2021 with an auction result of AUD 59,040.00 (€ 52,307.96).
