A top price for Anne Mee
When the work Portrait Of Captain And Lieutenant-Colonel Thomas Grosvenor (1764-1851) by Anne Mee was auctioned at Sothebys in London in April 2008, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 5,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at GBP 19,700.00 (€ 25,114.72). This high result makes Portrait Of Captain And Lieutenant-Colonel Thomas Grosvenor (1764-1851) the most expensive artwork by Anne Mee that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Anne Mee
Als die Arbeit Portrait Of Captain And Lieutenant-Colonel Thomas Grosvenor (1764-1851) von Anne Mee im April 2008 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 5.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 19.700,00 (€ 25.114,72) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Portrait Of Captain And Lieutenant-Colonel Thomas Grosvenor (1764-1851) zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Anne Mee, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
