Upper estimate price exceeded by 43 %.
The work Portrait of General Richard Grenville, bust-length, in red coat, in a painted oval by Gilbert Stuart was sold in the Old Master Paintings Part II auction at Christies in New York in January 2012. It achieved a price of USD 50,000.00 (€ 38,305.37), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 43%. 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).

Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 50.000,00 (€ 38.305,37) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 43%. 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).
