Sold at the upper estimate price
The work Portrait Of A Gentleman, Circa 1795 by Augustin Christian Ritt was auctioned at Sothebys in London in November 2018. The auction ended at the price of GBP 3,500.00 (€ 3,947.89), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of GBP 2,500.00 – 3,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Augustin Christian Ritt achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait Of Prince Alexei Borisovich Kurakin (1759-1829) in November 2018 with an auction result of GBP 200,000.00 (€ 225,593.92).
