Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Portrait of a gentleman, traditionally identified as William Taylor, half-length, in a blue coat and white cravat, in a feigned oval by Gilbert Stuart was auctioned at Christies in London in May 2012. The price achieved of GBP 4,750.00 (€ 5,918.29) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Gilbert Stuart achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work George Washington (Vaughan type) in May 2018 with an auction result of USD 11,562,500.00 (€ 9,907,883.46).

Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 4.750,00 (€ 5.918,29) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Gilbert Stuart erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit George Washington (Vaughan type) im Mai 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 11.562.500,00 (€ 9.907.883,46).
