Despite a disappointment, a good price for Albert Theer
This work of art by Albert Theer could be acquired at Sothebys in London in December 2020 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Old Master and British Works on Paper, including Portrait Miniatures from the Pohl-Ströher Collection auction, the work Portrait of a young boy dressed in a uniform changed hands for GBP 1,134.00 (€ 1,266.78) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 1,200.00 – 1,800.00. Despite this disappointing result, Portrait of a young boy dressed in a uniform is the most expensive artwork by Albert Theer that we have observed at auction so far.
