This artwork by Thomas Allom achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in London in June this year. In the Travel & Exploration Sale auction, the work 'Monastery of St George of the Precipice on the Sea of Marmora', Turkey sold for GBP 12,800.00 (€ 14,897.00) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 5,000.00.
