Upper estimate price exceeded by 50 %.
The work Portrait Of Chief Justice Sir Richard Rainsford (1605–1680) by Gerard Soest was auctioned at Sothebys in London in May 2012. It achieved a price of GBP 9,000.00 (€ 11,213.60), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 50%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Gerard Soest - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Portrait of a boy from the Ashley-Cooper family, half-length, wearing a blue wrap and a white shirt with a dog in a landscape, which sold at auction in December 2018 for GBP 40,000.00 (€ 44,563.55).
