The work The Duenna outwitted by George Jones was sold in the British and Continental Pictures auction at Christies in London in November 2002. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 763.75 (€ 1,195.99), 27% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by George Jones achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Battle of Waterloo in July 2015 with an auction result of GBP 56,250.00 (€ 79,743.61).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 27 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit The Duenna outwitted von George Jones wurde im November 2002 in der Auktion British and Continental Pictures bei Christies in London versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 763,75 (€ 1.195,99) und damit 27% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von George Jones erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Battle of Waterloo im Juli 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 56.250,00 (€ 79.743,61).
