It achieved a price of GBP 1,440.00 (€ 2,088.71), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 20%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Charles Guillaume Alexandre Bourgeois - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A young gentleman and lady in profile to left, dark background; he in blue coat with yellow waistcoat and cravat, forward-combed brown hair and sideburns; and she in white dress, pearl-set gold comb in her plaited upswept hair, which sold at auction in November 2001 for GBP 4,700.00 (€ 7,479.18).
