A top price for Charles Shirreff
In December 2002 Christies in London held the auction Important Gold Boxes, Objects of Vertu and Portrait, which included the work A young lady called Miss Caroline ..., facing right in lace-bordered white dress with blue detail at right shoulder, white stole draped around her neck, tied blue ribbon in her long powdered curling hair by Charles Shirreff. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 5,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 5,019.00 (€ 7,704.42). With this result, A young lady called Miss Caroline ..., facing right in lace-bordered white dress with blue detail at right shoulder, white stole draped around her neck, tied blue ribbon in her long powdered curling hair is even the most expensive work of art by Charles Shirreff that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Charles Shirreff
Im Dezember 2002 führte Christies in London die Auktion Important Gold Boxes, Objects of Vertu and Portrait durch, in der auch die Arbeit A young lady called Miss Caroline ..., facing right in lace-bordered white dress with blue detail at right shoulder, white stole draped around her neck, tied blue ribbon in her long powdered curling hair von Charles Shirreff zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 5.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 5.019,00 (€ 7.704,42) einen neuen Besitzer. Mit diesem Ergebnis ist A young lady called Miss Caroline ..., facing right in lace-bordered white dress with blue detail at right shoulder, white stole draped around her neck, tied blue ribbon in her long powdered curling hair sogar das teuerste Kunstwerk von Charles Shirreff, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
