Dieses Kunstwerk von Harry Watson erzielte im März 2011 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Victorian & British Impressionist Pictures Including Drawings & Watercolours wurde die Arbeit The white dress für GBP 4.625,00 (€ 5.233,17) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 2.500,00.
