This artwork by John Michael Wright achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in June 2008. In the Old Master Paintings auction, the work Portrait Of A Lady sold for USD 134,500.00 (€ 85,407.67) - well above the upper estimate of USD 70,000.00. Admittedly, works by John Michael Wright have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work A Highland Chieftain: Portrait of Lord Mungo Murray (1668-1700), full-length, in highland dress, holding a flintlock sporting gun in his right hand, a gilt-hilt ribbon basket sword at his left side, in a landscape with a flock of wild goats beyond in June 2000 with an auction result of GBP 322,750.00 (€ 511,598

Oberer Schätzpreis um 92 % übertroffen
