The work Landing a catch on a quiet spot of the river by Robert Gallon was sold in the Victorian and British Impressionist Pictures including Drawings and Watercolours auction at Christies in London in November 2009. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 3,250.00 (€ 3,556.71), 63% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Robert Gallon achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A woman and child crossing a bridge by a lake in June 2000 with an auction result of GBP 27,025.00 (€ 42,837.95).
