The work "The Toilet", a lady seated at a toilet-table, and her maid - candlelight by Augustus Leopold Egg was sold in the Victorian & British Impressionist Art auction at Christies in London in December 2012. The result of GBP 15,000.00 (€ 18,499.17) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 15,000.00 – 20,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Augustus Leopold Egg - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Queen Elizabeth discovers she is no longer young. In the melancholy of her sickness, she desired to see a true looking-glass, into which she had not looked for twenty years., which sold at auction in November 2002 for GBP 38,240.00 (€ 59,881.87).
