Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
When the work Portrait Of A Lady, Circa 1710 by Charles Boit was auctioned at Sothebys in London in May 2020, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 1,800.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at GBP 6,875.00 (€ 7,632.01). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Charles Boit achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait Of Peter The Great, Emperor Of Russia (1672-1723) in November 2018 with an auction result of GBP 93,750.00 (€ 105,747.15).
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Portrait Of A Lady, Circa 1710 von Charles Boit im Mai 2020 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 1.800,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 6.875,00 (€ 7.632,01) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Charles Boit erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait Of Peter The Great, Emperor Of Russia (1672-1723) im November 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 93.750,00 (€ 105.747,15).
