Artwork auctioned at five times the upper estimate price
The work A cardinal giving his blessings by Nikolaus Gysis was worth GBP 8,750.00 (€ 9,849.56) to a buyer in January 2009. This price was achieved in the auction 19th Century European Art & Orientalist Art at Christies in London and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of GBP 1,500.00 many times over. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Nikolaus Gysis achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Greek Grandfather And Grandson in November 2007 with an auction result of GBP 580,500.00 (€ 812,850.18).
