This artwork by Augustin Amant Constant Fidèle Edouart achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in January 2009. In the The Roger Warner Collection - Part I auction, the work Unknown sold for GBP 1,375.00 (€ 1,547.79) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 600.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Augustin Amant Constant Fidèle Edouart achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work An Album Of Silhouettes Of ‘Irish Characters' in July 2014 with an auction result of GBP 32,500.00 (€ 40,992.72).

Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
