Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Portrait Of A Lady, Circa 1778 by François Dumont was auctioned at Sothebys in London in December 2018. It achieved a price of GBP 9,375.00 (€ 10,444.58), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 17%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by François Dumont achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Queen Marie-Antoinette (1755-1793), facing right in gold-bordered white satin dress with gold-bordered blue sash, white-bordered pale blue muslin scarf tied in her long curled powdered hair in November 2001 with an auction result of GBP 69,750.00 (€ 110,994.22).
