The work A Summer's day on the lake by Henri Biva was sold in the 19th Century European Art auction at Christies in London in February 2012. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 6,875.00 (€ 8,208.93), 72% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Henri Biva - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The woodland pool, which sold at auction in May 2016 for GBP 22,500.00 (€ 29,360.13).
