Upper estimate price exceeded by 25 %.
The work Greek a Coastal Bay by Constantinos Volanakis was sold in the 19th Century European Paintings auction at Sothebys in London in December 2015. It achieved a price of GBP 25,000.00 (€ 33,948.80), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 25%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Constantinos Volanakis achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Greek The Arrival Of Karaiskakis At Faliro in November 2008 with an auction result of GBP 1,609,250.00 (€ 1,945,704.19).

Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 25.000,00 (€ 33.948,80) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 25%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Constantinos Volanakis erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Greek The Arrival Of Karaiskakis At Faliro im November 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 1.609.250,00 (€ 1.945.704,19).
