This artwork by Henry Andrew Harper achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in January 2003. In the British and Continental Pictures and Works on Paper auction, the work Sea of Tiberias, from Gadara (illustrated); and View of Sinai, Egypt sold for GBP 1,645.00 (€ 2,519.50) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 700.00.
