Upper estimate price exceeded by 43 %.
The work An Italianate Landscape With A Drover And His Dog Driving His Cattle Across A Ford, A Waterfall Beyond by Claude Gellée was sold in the Old Masters Evening Sale auction at Sothebys in London in July 2017. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 428,750.00 (€ 478,419.16), 43% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Claude Gellée achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A Mediterranean Port At Sunrise With The Embarkation Of Saint Paula For Jerusalem in December 2013 with an auction result of GBP 4,450,000.00 (€ 5,352,659.84).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 43 % übertroffen

Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 428.750,00 (€ 478.419,16) und damit 43% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Claude Gellée erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A Mediterranean Port At Sunrise With The Embarkation Of Saint Paula For Jerusalem im Dezember 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 4.450.000,00 (€ 5.352.659,84).
