This artwork by Gherardo Cibo achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in July 2019. In the Old Master and British Drawings and Watercolours Including Works from the Collection of Jean Bonna auction, the work A rocky arch with figures by a stream, and buildings in a hilly landscape beyond sold for GBP 43,750.00 (€ 48,034.59) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 25,000.00. Admittedly, works by Gherardo Cibo have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work A sketchbook with 22 leaves, bound in vellum, containing 24 studies of plants with discourses on their properties and with sketches for decorative elements in July 2011 with an auction result of GBP 337,250.00 (€ 387,044.83).
