Upper estimate price exceeded by 25 %.
In December 2019 Sothebys in London held the auction The Pohl-Ströher Collection of Portrait Miniatures, Part III, which included the work Portrait Of Friedrich Wilhelm, Prince Zu Hohenlohe-Kirchberg (1732-1796), Circa 1790 by Heinrich Friedrich Füger. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 7,500.00 (€ 8,864.12), 25% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Heinrich Friedrich Füger achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Jupiter in December 2020 with an auction result of GBP 163,800.00 (€ 182,979.20).

Im Dezember 2019 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion The Pohl-Ströher Collection of Portrait Miniatures, Part III durch, in der auch die Arbeit Portrait Of Friedrich Wilhelm, Prince Zu Hohenlohe-Kirchberg (1732-1796), Circa 1790 von Heinrich Friedrich Füger zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 7.500,00 (€ 8.864,12) und damit 25% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Heinrich Friedrich Füger erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Jupiter im Dezember 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 163.800,00 (€ 182.979,20).
