Upper estimate price exceeded by 48 %.

The work Figures and a dog before a parish church by George Sidney Shepherd was sold in the Christie's Interiors Including Paintings, Drawings & Watercolours From The Collection of The Late John Appleby auction at Christies in London in March 2011. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 1,187.50 (€ 1,343.65), 48% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by George Sidney Shepherd have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Waterfront At Brighton in May 2014 with an auction result of GBP 6,750.00 (€ 8,295.97).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 48 % übertroffen

Die Arbeit Figures and a dog before a parish church von George Sidney Shepherd wurde im März 2011 in der Auktion Christie's Interiors Including Paintings, Drawings & Watercolours From The Collection of The Late John Appleby bei Christies in London versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 1.187,50 (€ 1.343,65) und damit 48% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von George Sidney Shepherd auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit The Waterfront At Brighton im Mai 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 6.750,00 (€ 8.295,97).
