Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%

This artwork by Johann Georg Platzer achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in London in July 2012. In the Old Master & British Paintings Evening Sale auction, the work Croesus And Solon sold for GBP 313,250.00 (€ 398,996.31) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 150,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Johann Georg Platzer; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Allegory of the Five Senses sold at auction in April 2007 with the realized price of GBP 276,000.00 (€ 404,099.56).
