Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price

The work Austrian The Fortune Teller Of Cairo by Franz Xaver Kosler was worth GBP 68,500.00 (€ 83,380.35) to a buyer in April 2014. This price was achieved in the auction The Orientalist Sale at Sothebys in London and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of GBP 20,000.00 many times over. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Franz Xaver Kosler; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Arrival of the Caravan sold at auction in March last year with the realized price of GBP 107,100.00 (€ 126,979.10).
