The work Portrait of Princess Louise (1848-1939), head and shoulders, in a blue dress by Queen Victoria was sold in the Victorian, Pre-Raphaelite & British Impressionist Art, Maritime Art, Sporting & Wildlife Art auction at Christies in London in March 2017. It achieved a price of GBP 20,000.00 (€ 23,438.03), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 67%.
