Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by George Engleheart achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in London in May 2020. In the Old Masters including Portrait Miniatures from the Pohl-Ströher Collection auction, the work Portrait Of A Lady, Circa 1785 sold for GBP 6,875.00 (€ 7,632.01) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 3,000.00. Admittedly, works by George Engleheart have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work A young lady, facing right in low-cut white dress, white shirt with high standing lace-bordered collar, lace cap and straw bonnet tied with white ribbons in her dark brown curling hair in December 2002 with an auction result of GBP 45,410.00 (€ 69,706.62).

In der Auktion Old Masters including Portrait Miniatures from the Pohl-Ströher Collection wurde die Arbeit Portrait Of A Lady, Circa 1785 für GBP 6.875,00 (€ 7.632,01) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 3.000,00.
