In November 2018 Sothebys in London held the auction A Living Legacy: Irish Art from the Collection of Brian P. Burns, which included the work Seated Boy And Sea by Walter Frederick Osborne. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 137,500.00 (€ 155,095.82), 72% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Walter Frederick Osborne have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Dorothy And Irene Falkiner in May 2008 with an auction result of GBP 580,500.00 (€ 738,421.37).
