Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price

When the work Portrait of Margaret Cavendish Bentinck, 2Nd Duchess of Portland (1714-1785), Half-Length, In A Green Dress And Mantle by Michael Dahl was auctioned at Christies in London in November 2006, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 8,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at GBP 26,400.00 (€ 39,204.83). Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Michael Dahl; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Double Portrait Of A Lady And A Gentleman sold at auction in December 2017 with the realized price of GBP 56,250.00 (€ 63,301.14).

Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert

Als die Arbeit Portrait of Margaret Cavendish Bentinck, 2Nd Duchess of Portland (1714-1785), Half-Length, In A Green Dress And Mantle von Michael Dahl im November 2006 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 8.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 26.400,00 (€ 39.204,83) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Michael Dahl; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit Double Portrait Of A Lady And A Gentleman im Dezember 2017 mit dem Hammerpreis von GBP 56.250,00 (€ 63.301,14).
