Upper estimate price exceeded by 65 %.
The work A wooded river landscape by Alphonse Legros was sold in the AT HOME-BRITISH AND CONTINENTAL PICTURES AND WORKS ON PAPER auction at Christies in London in June 2003. It achieved a price of GBP 822.50 (€ 1,181.98), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 65%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Alphonse Legros achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Female Torso in December 2013 with an auction result of GBP 13,750.00 (€ 16,539.12).
