The work The Madonna and Child by Neri di Bicci was sold in the Old Master & British Pictures (Evening Sale) auction at Christies in London in December 2008. It achieved a price of GBP 103,250.00 (€ 108,442.54), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 29%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Neri di Bicci - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Martyrdom of Saint Januarius: panel from a predella, which sold at auction in July 2008 for GBP 325,250.00 (€ 413,233.79).
