Upper estimate price exceeded by 47 %.
The work Portrait of a Young Lady, Seated by Josef Kriehuber was sold in the Master Paintings and Drawings Part II auction at Sothebys in New York in May last year. The »bidding war« ended at USD 882.00 (€ 821.92), 47% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Josef Kriehuber achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait of Baron von Tettenborn in June 2008 with an auction result of GBP 8,750.00 (€ 11,060.29).

Die Arbeit Portrait of a Young Lady, Seated von Josef Kriehuber wurde im Mai letzten Jahres in der Auktion Master Paintings and Drawings Part II bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 882,00 (€ 821,92) und damit 47% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Josef Kriehuber erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait of Baron von Tettenborn im Juni 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 8.750,00 (€ 11.060,29).
