Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Alexander I (1777-1825), Emperor of Russia 1801-1825, in black uniform with red and gold collar and gold epaulettes, wearing the blue sash and breast-star of the Imperial Russian Order of St. Andrew, the badges of the Order of St. George, the Swedish Orde by Henri Benner was auctioned at Christies in London in May 2014. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 6,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 6,875.00 (€ 8,449.60). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Henri Benner achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait Of Grand Duke Nicholas Pavlovich, Later Emperor Nicholas I Of Russia (1796-1855), Circa 1821 in November 2018 with an auction result of GBP 75,000.00 (€ 84,597.72).
