Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%

This artwork by Charles Robert Leslie achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in March 2003. In the The House Sale auction, the work The Secret Messenger sold for USD 7,170.00 (€ 6,577.98) - well above the upper estimate of USD 3,500.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Charles Robert Leslie - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Sancho Panza in the Apartment of the Duchess, which sold at auction in February 2003 for GBP 14,340.00 (€ 20,935.95).

Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von Charles Robert Leslie erzielte im März 2003 bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion The House Sale wurde die Arbeit The Secret Messenger für USD 7.170,00 (€ 6.577,98) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 3.500,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Charles Robert Leslie mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Sancho Panza in the Apartment of the Duchess beobachtet, die im Februar 2003 für GBP 14.340,00 (€ 20.935,95) versteigert wurde.
