This artwork by James Sharples achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in January 2011. In the Christie's Interiors auction, the work Portrait of a gentleman, small three-quarter-length, seated on a chair, in hunting attire, a riding crop in his right hand sold for GBP 1,500.00 (€ 1,683.41) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 800.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by James Sharples achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work George Washington in January 2021 with an auction result of USD 325,000.00 (€ 267,820.35).

Dieses Kunstwerk von James Sharples erzielte im Januar 2011 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Christie's Interiors wurde die Arbeit Portrait of a gentleman, small three-quarter-length, seated on a chair, in hunting attire, a riding crop in his right hand für GBP 1.500,00 (€ 1.683,41) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 800,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von James Sharples erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit George Washington im Januar 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 325.000,00 (€ 267.820,35).
