Upper estimate price exceeded by 33 %.
The work Sketch Of The Lake Of Geneva From The Slopes Of The Jura Mountains, Switzerland by John Ruskin was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in January 2019. It achieved a price of USD 40,000.00 (€ 34,922.30), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 33%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Ruskin achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Bellinzona, Switzerland, looking north towards the St. Gotthard pass in November 2003 with an auction result of GBP 274,050.00 (€ 393,402.83).

Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 40.000,00 (€ 34.922,30) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 33%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von John Ruskin erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Bellinzona, Switzerland, looking north towards the St. Gotthard pass im November 2003 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 274.050,00 (€ 393.402,83).
