This artwork by David Muirhead Bone achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in London in November 2008. In the A GREAT BRITISH COLLECTION: The pictures collected by Sir David and Lady Scott, sold to benefit the Finnis Scott Foundation auction, the work The Old Beggar, Glasgow sold for GBP 438.00 (€ 529.57) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 150.00.
