A top price for Giles Hussey
When the work Portrait of Prince Charles Edward Stuart (1720-1788), bust-length, looking to the left, in armour by Giles Hussey was auctioned at Christies in London in October 2002, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 6,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at GBP 22,705.00 (€ 35,915.31). This high result makes Portrait of Prince Charles Edward Stuart (1720-1788), bust-length, looking to the left, in armour the most expensive artwork by Giles Hussey that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Giles Hussey
Als die Arbeit Portrait of Prince Charles Edward Stuart (1720-1788), bust-length, looking to the left, in armour von Giles Hussey im Oktober 2002 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 6.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 22.705,00 (€ 35.915,31) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Portrait of Prince Charles Edward Stuart (1720-1788), bust-length, looking to the left, in armour zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Giles Hussey, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
