In October 2011 Christies in New York held the auction 19th Century European Art, which included the work The Mausoleums near the Sehzadebasi Mosque, Istanbul by Fabius Brest. The »bidding war« ended at USD 92,500.00 (€ 66,322.51), 54% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Fabius Brest have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Le Beiram; cérémonie de baise-main à Constantinople, sous le Sultan Mahmoud II in October 2005 with an auction result of USD 598,400.00 (€ 498,874.53).
