Upper estimate price exceeded by 40 %.
The work Portrait Of A Merchant Of The Levant Company In Turkish Dress, A View Of Aleppo Beyond by Andrea Soldi was sold in the Old Master and British Paintings Day Sale auction at Sothebys in London in July 2011. It achieved a price of GBP 421,250.00 (€ 483,447.40), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 40%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Andrea Soldi - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Portrait of a gentleman, possibly Richard Salwey, half-length, in a fur-trimmed red coat and a turban, leaning on a plinth, which sold at auction in December 2011 for GBP 825,250.00 (€ 988,353.45).
