This artwork by Peter Rees Roberts achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in November 2006.

However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Peter Rees Roberts - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Bobbin Mill Ambleside II, which sold at auction in November 2006 for GBP 19,200.00 (€ 28,512.60).
