Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by John Butler Yeats achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in London in September 2020. In the Irish Art, including Property from the Collection of Sir MichaelSmurfit auction, the work 'Cuckoo' York Powell sold for GBP 1,512.00 (€ 1,667.23) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 700.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Butler Yeats achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Self Portrait, New York in September 2017 with an auction result of GBP 87,500.00 (€ 99,269.87).

Dieses Kunstwerk von John Butler Yeats erzielte im September 2020 bei Sothebys in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Irish Art, including Property from the Collection of Sir MichaelSmurfit wurde die Arbeit 'Cuckoo' York Powell für GBP 1.512,00 (€ 1.667,23) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 700,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Butler Yeats erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Self Portrait, New York im September 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 87.500,00 (€ 99.269,87).
