In March 2017 Sothebys in London held the auction Two Great Scottish Collections: Property from the Forbeses of Pitsligo and the Marquesses of Lothian, which included the work Rome From The Villa Mellini by John Robert Cozens. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 75,000.00 (€ 87,892.60), 25% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Robert Cozens achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Lake Of Albano And Castel Gandolfo in July 2010 with an auction result of GBP 2,393,250.00 (€ 2,877,613.47).

Im März 2017 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Two Great Scottish Collections: Property from the Forbeses of Pitsligo and the Marquesses of Lothian durch, in der auch die Arbeit Rome From The Villa Mellini von John Robert Cozens zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 75.000,00 (€ 87.892,60) und damit 25% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Robert Cozens erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Lake Of Albano And Castel Gandolfo im Juli 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 2.393.250,00 (€ 2.877.613,47).
