Upper estimate price exceeded by 32 %.
The work Unknown by Cécile Villeneuve was auctioned at Christies in London in March 2006. It achieved a price of GBP 660.00 (€ 945.66), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 32%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Cécile Villeneuve achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Vicomtesse Geoffroy de Ruillé, in black dress with white lace underdress, pink rose and foliage at corsage, globular gold bell suspended on a black ribbon choker, pink rose and foliage and black lace veil falling from her upswept blond hair in May 2004 with an auction result of GBP 16,730.00 (€ 25,101.16).

Die Arbeit Unknown von Cécile Villeneuve kam im März 2006 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 660,00 (€ 945,66) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 32%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Cécile Villeneuve erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Vicomtesse Geoffroy de Ruillé, in black dress with white lace underdress, pink rose and foliage at corsage, globular gold bell suspended on a black ribbon choker, pink rose and foliage and black lace veil falling from her upswept blond hair im Mai 2004 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 16.730,00 (€ 25.101,16).
