This artwork by John Vanderbank achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in May 2005. In the 22 ARLINGTON STREET, A WILLIAM KENT HOUSE auction, the work Portrait of Sir Francis Bacon (1561-1626), Three-Quarter-Length, In Lord Chancellor'S Robes, Before A Red Curtain, A Landscape Beyond sold for GBP 20,400.00 (€ 30,116.80) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 10,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by John Vanderbank; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Mary, Countess of Delorain (1705-1737), three-quarter length, in a white dress by an orange tree, a landscape beyond sold at auction in July 2018 with the realized price of GBP 35,000.00 (€ 39,242.70).
