In June 2007 Sothebys in Olympia held the auction 20th Century British & Irish Art, which included the work Still Life With Sunflowers by Leon Francesco Morrocco. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 4,800.00 (€ 7,122.96), 37% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Leon Francesco Morrocco - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Sunlight On Fishermen'S Houses, Procida, Bay Of Naples, which sold at auction in August 2006 for GBP 13,200.00 (€ 19,629.23).
