Upper estimate price exceeded by 47 %.
The work An abbot holding a letter; and A gentleman with a dog by Louis-Léopold Boilly was auctioned at Christies in New York in January 2024. It achieved a price of USD 44,100.00 (€ 38,542.21), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 47%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Louis-Léopold Boilly achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A trompe l'oeil of an ivory and wood crucifix in April 2017 with an auction result of USD 823,500.00 (€ 755,851.31).

Die Arbeit An abbot holding a letter; and A gentleman with a dog von Louis-Léopold Boilly kam im Januar 2024 bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von USD 44.100,00 (€ 38.542,21) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 47%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Louis-Léopold Boilly erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A trompe l'oeil of an ivory and wood crucifix im April 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 823.500,00 (€ 755.851,31).
