Upper estimate price exceeded by 64 %.
The work Henry Benedict Stuart, Cardinal York (1725-1807) by Hugh Douglas Hamilton was sold in the Old Master & Early British Paintings auction at Sothebys in London in April 2011. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 13,125.00 (€ 14,781.01), 64% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Hugh Douglas Hamilton achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Double Portrait of Mary, Countess of Erne, with her daughter Lady Caroline Crichton, later Lady Wharncliffe, full-length, seated, the former in a brown dress with a yellow sash, wearing a large straw hat, with a mandolin beside her, the latter showin in May 2004 with an auction result of GBP 542,850.00 (€ 81

Die Arbeit Henry Benedict Stuart, Cardinal York (1725-1807) von Hugh Douglas Hamilton wurde im April 2011 in der Auktion Old Master & Early British Paintings bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 13.125,00 (€ 14.781,01) und damit 64% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Hugh Douglas Hamilton erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Double Portrait of Mary, Countess of Erne, with her daughter Lady Caroline Crichton, later Lady Wharncliffe, full-length, seated, the former in a brown dress with a yellow sash, wearing a large straw hat, with a mandolin beside her, the latter showin im Mai 2004 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 542.850,00 (€ 814.474,95).
