Upper estimate price exceeded by 32 %.

The work The hunting party of Sultan Ahmed III by Jean-Baptiste Vanmour was auctioned at Christies in New York in June 2004. It achieved a price of USD 197,900.00 (€ 162,492.82), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 32%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jean-Baptiste Vanmour - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Armenian women embroidering in an interior; Armenian women drinking coffee in an interior; Armenian interior with a sultan and his favourite; and Greek sailors merrymaking in an interior, which sold at auction in December 2006 for GBP 355,200.00 (€ 527,161.26).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 32 % übertroffen
