Upper estimate price exceeded by 71 %.

The work Study of St Francis of Assisi by François-Léon Bénouville was auctioned at Christies in London in July 2008. It achieved a price of GBP 600.00 (€ 762.31), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 71%. Admittedly, works by François-Léon Bénouville have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work French saint Francois D'Assise Transporte Mourant A Sainte-Marie Des Anges, Benit La Ville D'Assise in November 2011 with an auction result of GBP 6,250.00 (€ 7,296.24).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 71 % übertroffen

Die Arbeit Study of St Francis of Assisi von François-Léon Bénouville kam im Juli 2008 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 600,00 (€ 762,31) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 71%.
