In March 2017 Christies in London held the auction Victorian, Pre-Raphaelite & British Impressionist Art, Maritime Art, Sporting & Wildlife Art, which included the work St Matthew: Design for a stained glass window by Frederick James Shields. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 11,000.00 (€ 12,890.91), 38% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Frederick James Shields - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Mary Magdalene, which sold at auction in June 2010 for GBP 22,500.00 (€ 27,362.09).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 38 % übertroffen

Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 11.000,00 (€ 12.890,91) und damit 38% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Frederick James Shields mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Mary Magdalene beobachtet, die im Juni 2010 für GBP 22.500,00 (€ 27.362,09) versteigert wurde.
