Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Bernard Salomon achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in July 2004. In the Old Master and 19th Century Drawings auction, the work The Calling of Abraham (Gen. 12); Abraham and Lot separate (Gen. 13); Abraham and Melchizedek (Gen. 14); and Abraham refusing the Goods (Gen. 14) sold for GBP 5,377.50 (€ 8,126.59) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 2,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Bernard Salomon; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Joseph and Potiphar's Wife (Gen. 39) sold at auction in July 2004 with the realized price of GBP 8,126.00 (€ 12,280.17).
