Upper estimate price exceeded by 73 %.
The work A Spanish lady wearing a mantilla by John Frederick Lewis was sold in the Old Master & British Works on Paper auction at Sothebys in London in July 2021. It achieved a price of GBP 6,930.00 (€ 8,126.86), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 73%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Frederick Lewis achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Midday Meal, Cairo in June 2005 with an auction result of GBP 2,472,000.00 (€ 3,663,660.11).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 73 % übertroffen
