The work Master Hornblow, in blue silk dress with lace collar, short blond hair by William Maw Egley was sold in the IMPORTANT GOLD BOXES,OBJECTS OF VERTU & PORTRAIT MINIATURES auction at Christies in London in May 2004. It achieved a price of GBP 1,015.75 (€ 1,524.00), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 69%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Maw Egley achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Catherine of Aragon in June 2002 with an auction result of GBP 20,315.00 (€ 31,422.70).
