The work Unknown by Raoul Millais was sold in the The Sunday Sale -The Principal Contents of a Suffolk Hall auction at Christies in London in April 2007. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 4,800.00 (€ 7,027.82), 60% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Raoul Millais - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Two Horses With Grooms And A Spaniel In A Landscape, which sold at auction in April 2008 for USD 27,400.00 (€ 17,600.21).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 60 % übertroffen
