The work Amongst the haystooks by Leopold Rivers was sold in the British, Continental & Russian Pictures auction at Christies in London in October 2007. It achieved a price of GBP 875.00 (€ 1,256.56), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 46%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Leopold Rivers - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The End Of The Day, which sold at auction in July 2007 for GBP 1,800.00 (€ 2,673.42).

Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 875,00 (€ 1.256,56) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 46%. Für andere Arbeiten von Leopold Rivers mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The End Of The Day beobachtet, die im Juli 2007 für GBP 1.800,00 (€ 2.673,42) versteigert wurde.
