Upper estimate price exceeded by 71 %.
The work The Rape Of Lucretia by Jacques-Louis David was sold in the Old Master & British Drawings auction at Sothebys in London in July 2015. It achieved a price of GBP 60,000.00 (€ 85,059.85), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 71%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Jacques-Louis David achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait of Ramel De Nogaret in April 2008 with an auction result of USD 7,209,000.00 (€ 4,630,652.62).

Die Arbeit The Rape Of Lucretia von Jacques-Louis David wurde im Juli 2015 in der Auktion Old Master & British Drawings bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 60.000,00 (€ 85.059,85) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 71%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Jacques-Louis David erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait of Ramel De Nogaret im April 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 7.209.000,00 (€ 4.630.652,62).
