This artwork by Emile Charles Lecomte-Vernet achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in London in May 2014. In the 19th Century European Paintings auction, the work French La Fidèle sold for GBP 45,000.00 (€ 55,306.45) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 25,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Emile Charles Lecomte-Vernet; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot French aimée, A Young Egyptian sold at auction in November 2010 with the realized price of USD 92,500.00 (€ 70,957.35).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 80 % übertroffen
