This artwork by François-Louis-Joseph Watteau achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in July 2000. In the Old Master Drawings auction, the work A seated woman shading her eyes from the light sold for GBP 11,162.50 (€ 18,049.62) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by François-Louis-Joseph Watteau achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Le Bal De Tivolifrançois Watteau, Called Watteau De Lille ; Bal In The Tivoli Garden, Paris ; Signed And Dated Lower Middle ; Oil On Non-Craddle Panel ; Bears Several Labels On The Reverse in June 2013 with an auction result of EUR 265,500.00.

Dieses Kunstwerk von François-Louis-Joseph Watteau erzielte im Juli 2000 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Old Master Drawings wurde die Arbeit A seated woman shading her eyes from the light für GBP 11.162,50 (€ 18.049,62) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 6.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von François-Louis-Joseph Watteau erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Le Bal De Tivolifrançois Watteau, Called Watteau De Lille ; Bal In The Tivoli Garden, Paris ; Signed And Dated Lower Middle ; Oil On Non-Craddle Panel ; Bears Several Labels On The Reverse im Juni 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 265.500,00.
