Upper estimate price exceeded by 98 %.

This artwork by James Scouler achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in June 2009. In the Centuries of Style: Silver, European Ceramics, Portrait Miniatures and Gold Boxes auction, the work A gentleman, in russet coat, matching waistcoat with fur trim, white fine French lace cravat, powdered bag wig en queue sold for GBP 2,375.00 (€ 2,786.98) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 1,200.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by James Scouler - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work William Powell (1735/1736-1769), In Fur-Lined Blue Gown, White Shirt With Lace Collar And Cuffs, Seated On A Chair With His Left Arm Resting On The Chair Back, Holding In His Right Hand A Playbill For A Double Bill Of Cymbeline And George Colman The Elder, which sold at auction in November 2013 for GBP 8,750.00 (€ 10,529.
