Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%

This artwork by John Hamilton Mortimer achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in November 2004. In the British Art on Paper auction, the work Il Reposo sold for GBP 13,145.00 (€ 18,909.01) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 5,000.00.
