A top price for John Rogers Herbert - as previously expected
The work Our Saviour subject to his Parents at Nazareth by John Rogers Herbert was sold in the THE FORBES COLLECTION OF VICTORIAN PICTURES AND WORKS OF ART auction at Christies in London in February 2003. The price achieved of GBP 38,240.00 (€ 55,829.19) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 30,000.00 – 50,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Our Saviour subject to his Parents at Nazareth is the most expensive artwork by John Rogers Herbert that we have observed at auctions so far.
