The work Christ Church, Spitalfields, London, by Nicholas Hawksmoor, from: A Retrospective of Churches (Levinson 142) by John Piper was sold in the Old Master, Decorative, Modern & Contemporary Prints including an Important Private Collection by Lill Tschudi auction at Christies in London in December 2012. It achieved a price of GBP 1,625.00 (€ 2,004.08), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 35%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Piper achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Abstract Painting, 1935 in November 2015 with an auction result of GBP 362,500.00 (€ 516,327.40).
