Upper estimate price exceeded by 28 %.

The work A capriccio of a Mediterranean harbour with stevedores on the bank by a tower near classical ruins, shipping beyond by Lorenzo A. Castro was sold in the Old Master and British Pictures and Old Master Drawings auction at Christies in London in April 2007. It achieved a price of GBP 10,200.00 (€ 14,934.11), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 28%. Admittedly, works by Lorenzo A. Castro have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work An English Fourth Rate arriving off Genoa, with another, larger English man-o'war already at anchor offshore in November 2003 with an auction result of GBP 53,775.00 (€ 77,194.81).

Die Arbeit A capriccio of a Mediterranean harbour with stevedores on the bank by a tower near classical ruins, shipping beyond von Lorenzo A. Castro wurde im April 2007 in der Auktion Old Master and British Pictures and Old Master Drawings bei Christies in London versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 10.200,00 (€ 14.934,11) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 28%. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Lorenzo A. Castro auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit An English Fourth Rate arriving off Genoa, with another, larger English man-o'war already at anchor offshore im November 2003 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 53.775,00 (€ 77.194,81).
