The work View of Lucerne, Switzerland by David Roberts was sold in the Remastered: Old Masters from the Collection of J.E. Safra - Selling Without Reserve auction at Christies in Paris in July this year. It achieved a price of GBP 15,120.00 (€ 17,640.46), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 26%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by David Roberts achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Jerusalem, from the South in June 2016 with an auction result of GBP 962,500.00 (€ 1,155,314.09).

Die Arbeit View of Lucerne, Switzerland von David Roberts wurde im Juli diesen Jahres in der Auktion Remastered: Old Masters from the Collection of J.E. Safra - Selling Without Reserve bei Christies in Paris versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 15.120,00 (€ 17.640,46) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 26%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von David Roberts erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Jerusalem, from the South im Juni 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 962.500,00 (€ 1.155.314,09).
