8 ¼ x 12 ¾ in. (21 x 32.3 cm.)

Upper estimate price exceeded by 67 %.

The work A sleeping Napoleonic soldier by Paul Grolleron was sold in the 19th Century European Art auction at Christies in London in September 2014. It achieved a price of GBP 5,000.00 (€ 6,422.24), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 67%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Paul Grolleron - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Après la bataille (Waterloo), which sold at auction in October 2021 for USD 27,720.00 (€ 23,995.84).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 67 % übertroffen

Die Arbeit A sleeping Napoleonic soldier von Paul Grolleron wurde im September 2014 in der Auktion 19th Century European Art bei Christies in London versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 5.000,00 (€ 6.422,24) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 67%. Für andere Arbeiten von Paul Grolleron mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Après la bataille (Waterloo) beobachtet, die im Oktober 2021 für USD 27.720,00 (€ 23.995,84) versteigert wurde.
