A top price for Herbert Sidney - as previously expected

The work A Pompeian Bride; and A Pompeian Widow by Herbert Sidney was sold in the Old Masters & 19th Century Art Including Select Works From the Salander-O'Reilly Galleries auction at Christies in New York in June 2010. The price achieved of USD 8,750.00 (€ 7,119.03) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 7,000.00 – 10,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, A Pompeian Bride; and A Pompeian Widow is the most expensive artwork by Herbert Sidney that we have observed at auctions so far.
