In September 2021 Christies held the auction An Aesthetic Odyssey: The Peter Rose and Albert Gallichan Collection, which included the work The Morning Of The Nativity by Frank Cadogan Cowper. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 81,250.00 (€ 94,535.50), 35% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Frank Cadogan Cowper have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Our Lady of the Fruits of the Earth in December 2011 with an auction result of GBP 469,250.00 (€ 561,993.16).

Im September 2021 führte Christies die Auktion An Aesthetic Odyssey: The Peter Rose and Albert Gallichan Collection durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Morning Of The Nativity von Frank Cadogan Cowper zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 81.250,00 (€ 94.535,50) und damit 35% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Frank Cadogan Cowper auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Our Lady of the Fruits of the Earth im Dezember 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 469.250,00 (€ 561.993,16).
