This artwork by Philipp Ferdinand de Hamilton achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in July 2006. In the Old Master and 19th Century Drawings auction, the work Studies of Fungi: The Lower Three Are Russula Cyanoxantha, 'The Charcoal Burner' sold for GBP 19,200.00 (€ 28,106.55) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 10,000.00.
