Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%

This artwork by John Collier achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in London in July 2009. In the Victorian & Edwardian Art auction, the work Portrait Of Charles Darwin sold for GBP 13,125.00 (€ 14,892.94) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 5,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Collier achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Sleeping Beauty in June 2008 with an auction result of GBP 433,250.00 (€ 547,642.53).

Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von John Collier erzielte im Juli 2009 bei Sothebys in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Victorian & Edwardian Art wurde die Arbeit Portrait Of Charles Darwin für GBP 13.125,00 (€ 14.892,94) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 5.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Collier erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Sleeping Beauty im Juni 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 433.250,00 (€ 547.642,53).
