The work The Ten Virgins by John Melhuish Strudwick was auctioned at Christies in London in June 2001. It achieved a price of GBP 212,750.00 (€ 353,420.08), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 42%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by John Melhuish Strudwick - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work 'Thy Music, faintly falling, dies away, Thy dear eyes dream that Love will live for aye' G.F. Bodley, which sold at auction in November 2003 for GBP 509,250.00 (€ 731,035.91).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 42 % übertroffen
