Artwork auctioned at five times the upper estimate price

When the work Portrait Of Peter The Great, Emperor Of Russia (1672-1723) by Charles Boit was auctioned at Sothebys in London in July 2019, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 12,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than five times as high at GBP 60,000.00 (€ 65,876.01). Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Charles Boit; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Portrait Of Peter The Great, Emperor Of Russia (1672-1723) sold at auction in November 2018 with the realized price of GBP 93,750.00 (€ 105,747.15).

Kunstwerk zum Fünffachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert

Als die Arbeit Portrait Of Peter The Great, Emperor Of Russia (1672-1723) von Charles Boit im Juli 2019 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 12.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 60.000,00 (€ 65.876,01) mehr als fünfmal so hoch. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Charles Boit; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit Portrait Of Peter The Great, Emperor Of Russia (1672-1723) im November 2018 mit dem Hammerpreis von GBP 93.750,00 (€ 105.747,15).
