Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Charles-Antoine Coypel achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in July 2012. In the Old Master & Early British Drawings and Watercolours auction, the work The head of the Virgin, looking up to the right, with a subsidiary study of a hand sold for GBP 15,000.00 (€ 19,105.97) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Charles-Antoine Coypel achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Roland And The Marriage Of Angelique in January 2012 with an auction result of USD 3,554,500.00 (€ 2,723,128.78).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Charles-Antoine Coypel erzielte im Juli 2012 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Old Master & Early British Drawings and Watercolours wurde die Arbeit The head of the Virgin, looking up to the right, with a subsidiary study of a hand für GBP 15.000,00 (€ 19.105,97) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 6.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Charles-Antoine Coypel erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Roland And The Marriage Of Angelique im Januar 2012 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 3.554.500,00 (€ 2.723.128,78).
