Upper estimate price exceeded by 29 %.

The work A Norwegian trading brig running into port past the departing packet by Paul Jean Clays was auctioned at Christies in London in November 2000. It achieved a price of GBP 2,585.00 (€ 4,225.08), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 29%.

Die Arbeit A Norwegian trading brig running into port past the departing packet von Paul Jean Clays kam im November 2000 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 2.585,00 (€ 4.225,08) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 29%.
