In December 2010 Christies in London held the auction Victorian & British Impressionist Pictures Including Drawings and Watercolours, which included the work Study of a girl in the artist's studio standing before a tapestry by Henry Meynell Rheam. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 11,875.00 (€ 13,774.96), 48% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Henry Meynell Rheam - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Once Upon A Time (Snow White), which sold at auction in May 2011 for GBP 37,250.00 (€ 42,595.49).
