Upper estimate price exceeded by 63 %.
In July 2019 Sothebys in London held the auction The Pohl-Ströher Collection of Portrait Miniatures Part II, which included the work Portrait Of A Gentleman, Circa 1790 by Marie-Gabrielle Capet. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 8,125.00 (€ 8,920.71), 63% above the upper estimate. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Marie-Gabrielle Capet; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Portrait De François-André Vincent sold at auction in November 2017 with the realized price of EUR 15,600.00.
Oberer Schätzpreis um 63 % übertroffen
Im Juli 2019 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion The Pohl-Ströher Collection of Portrait Miniatures Part II durch, in der auch die Arbeit Portrait Of A Gentleman, Circa 1790 von Marie-Gabrielle Capet zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 8.125,00 (€ 8.920,71) und damit 63% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Marie-Gabrielle Capet; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit Portrait De François-André Vincent im November 2017 mit dem Hammerpreis von EUR 15.600,00.
