A top price for Antoine-François Callet - as previously expected
The work Portrait Of King Louis Xvi In Full Coronation Regalia by Antoine-François Callet was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in February 2013. The price achieved of USD 350,500.00 (€ 267,986.85) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 300,000.00 – 500,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Portrait Of King Louis Xvi In Full Coronation Regalia is the most expensive artwork by Antoine-François Callet that we have observed at auctions so far.
