Upper estimate price exceeded by 35 %.
The work The Spirit Of Christmas Present by John Tenniel was auctioned at Sothebys in London in March 2018. It achieved a price of GBP 1,625.00 (€ 1,850.15), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 35%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by John Tenniel achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work ‘Nuts To Crack’ in March 2018 with an auction result of GBP 27,500.00 (€ 31,310.27).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 35 % übertroffen
