Upper estimate price exceeded by 35 %.
In April 2008 Sothebys in London held the auction Old Master Paintings Sale, which included the work Portrait Of Two Sisters, Half Length, Wearing White Dresses by Marie-Victoire Lemoine. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 26,900.00 (€ 34,293.70), 35% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Marie-Victoire Lemoine have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Two Sisters in June 2017 with an auction result of USD 262,500.00 (€ 230,041.19).

Im April 2008 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Old Master Paintings Sale durch, in der auch die Arbeit Portrait Of Two Sisters, Half Length, Wearing White Dresses von Marie-Victoire Lemoine zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 26.900,00 (€ 34.293,70) und damit 35% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Marie-Victoire Lemoine auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit The Two Sisters im Juni 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 262.500,00 (€ 230.041,19).
