The work The Travelling Mob Along the Barcoo River, West Queensland by Hugh Sawrey was auctioned at Christies in Melbourne in November 2000. It achieved a price of AUD 12,925.00 (€ 7,822.79), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 62%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Hugh Sawrey - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Australian Shearing On The Boards At Bindi-Bango, which sold at auction in August 2007 for AUD 45,600.00 (€ 27,267.74).
