A top price for Margaret Bingham
In April 2021 Bonhams in London held the auction Old Master Paintings, which included the work Saint Agnes on the Pyre by Margaret Bingham. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 956.25 (€ 1,099.97), 20% above the upper estimate. With this result, Saint Agnes on the Pyre is even the most expensive work of art by Margaret Bingham that we have observed at auctions so far.
