This artwork by Sydney Herbert achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in July 2006. In the The Gyrn Castle House Sale, North Wales.Property from Gyrn Castle, Nantlys, Mostyn Hall and Capesthorne Hall auction, the work The Head of A Pomeranian Dog sold for GBP 600.00 (€ 878.33) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 300.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Sydney Herbert achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Emperor Tiberius approaching Capri in March 2002 with an auction result of GBP 11,162.50 (€ 18,247.75).
