This artwork by George Spencer Watson achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in December 2017. In the Victorian Pre-Raphaelite & British Impressionist Art auction, the work Portrait Of Clotilda Von Derp (Frau Sakharoff) sold for GBP 21,250.00 (€ 23,913.76) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 10,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by George Spencer Watson - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Orange Dress, which sold at auction in November 2013 for GBP 47,500.00 (€ 57,159.89).
