The work A P. & O. steamer reefed down in heavy seas by Edouard Adam was auctioned at Christies in London in May 2003. It achieved a price of GBP 1,880.00 (€ 2,619.31), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 25%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Edouard Adam - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Charles M. Watts at sea, which sold at auction in January 2008 for USD 10,000.00 (€ 6,738.09).
