Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%

This artwork by Paolo Porpora achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in December 2004. In the Old Master Pictures auction, the work Roses, hollyhocks, lillies, convovulus and other flowers in a classical urn with fruit, a lizard and a snake sold for GBP 111,650.00 (€ 158,015.51) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 50,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Paolo Porpora; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot A forest floor with a porcupine, rabbit, ducks, tortoises and a snake sold at auction in January 2024 with the realized price of USD 189,000.00 (€ 165,180.91).
