Upper estimate price exceeded by 67 %.
The work The Priest and Priestess by Émile-Louis Picault was sold in the 19th Century European Art and Orientalist Art auction at Christies in New York in October 2007. It achieved a price of USD 20,000.00 (€ 13,823.61), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 67%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Émile-Louis Picault achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Priest And The Scribe in April 2020 with an auction result of GBP 125,000.00 (€ 143,792.79).

Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 20.000,00 (€ 13.823,61) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 67%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Émile-Louis Picault erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Priest And The Scribe im April 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 125.000,00 (€ 143.792,79).
