This artwork by Henry Pierce Bone achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in January 2009. In the Lord St. Helens and Sir William FitzHerbert The Collections of a Diplomat and a Courtier auction, the work Sir William FitzHerbert (1874-1963), 7th Baronet of Tissington, in navy double-breasted frock coat with black satin lapels, white stand-collar waistcoat, white frilled cravat and stock, short grey hair, seated holding a gold snuff-box in his right ha sold for GBP 5,000. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Henry Pierce Bone achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work John Charles Spencer, Viscount Althorp, 3rd Earl Spencer (1782-1845), as Chancellor of the Exchequer, full length in Chancellor's robes over black mourning suit, standing beside a George II giltwood console table from Spencer House draped with green in July 2010 with an auction result of GBP 51,650.00 (€ 62,103
