The work Portrait of Captain John Long Bateman, Captain in Colonel Ponsonby's Independent Regiment, three-quarter-length, in uniform, holding his sword hilt and glove in his right hand, in a landscape, mounted cavalry and a ruin on a hill beyond by Stephen Slaughter was sold in the Lyons Demesne Works of Art from The Collection ofThe Late Dr. Tony Ryan auction at Christies in London in July 2011. The result of GBP 20,000.00 (€ 22,952.99) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Stephen Slaughter - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Portrait of two gentlemen, small-full-length, seated at a table, raising a toast, in a garden; and Portrait of two gentlemen, small-full-length, beside a lectern with one pointing to an open book, with a page inscribed 'Tacitus', which sold at auction in May 2001 for GBP 41,125.00 (€ 6
