Upper estimate price exceeded by 72 %.
In January 2009 Christies in New York held the auction The Scholars Eye: Property from the Julius Held Collection Part II, which included the work Two decorative neoclassical designs with Muses by Edward Francis Burney. The »bidding war« ended at USD 1,375.00 (€ 1,073.88), 72% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Edward Francis Burney achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Marriage of Peleus And Thetis On Mount Pelion in June 2007 with an auction result of GBP 14,400.00 (€ 21,368.88).

Im Januar 2009 führte Christies in New York die Auktion The Scholars Eye: Property from the Julius Held Collection Part II durch, in der auch die Arbeit Two decorative neoclassical designs with Muses von Edward Francis Burney zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 1.375,00 (€ 1.073,88) und damit 72% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Edward Francis Burney erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Marriage of Peleus And Thetis On Mount Pelion im Juni 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 14.400,00 (€ 21.368,88).
