Upper estimate price exceeded by 38 %.
The work Cartoon for a stained-glass window showing The Sermon on the Mount, made for All Saints, Selsley by Dante Gabriel Rossetti was auctioned at Bonhams in London in September last year. It achieved a price of GBP 48,180.00 (€ 54,833.50), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 38%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Dante Gabriel Rossetti achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Pandora in May 2014 with an auction result of GBP 5,346,500.00 (€ 6,571,020.97).
