Upper estimate price exceeded by 50 %.
The work Marx Treitzsaurwein, Der Weisskunig (The History Of Emperor Maximilian I And His Ancestors) (Cf. Hollstein 431-541) by Hans Burgkmair the Elder was auctioned at Sothebys in London in April 2017. It achieved a price of GBP 3,000.00 (€ 3,562.55), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 50%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Hans Burgkmair the Elder achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Zwei Darstellungen des Heiligen Ulrich von Augsburg, um 1505/08. in September 2010 with an auction result of CHF 120,000.00 (€ 89,949.27).
