oval, 2 15/16 in. (74 mm.) high, gilt-brass mount
Upper estimate price exceeded by 47 %.
In November 2001 Christies in London held the auction Important Portrait Miniatures including works from the, which included the work A gentleman, facing left in blue coat with black velvet collar and gilt buttons, white waistcoat, knotted white cravat with jabot, powdered curly hair and sidewhiskers by Philip Jean. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 1,762.50 (€ 2,804.69), 47% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Philip Jean achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Paul Sandby (1731-1809), In Blue Coat, White Waistcoat And Cravat, Powdered Hair En Queue, Holding A Pen And Open Book; Landscape Background With Windsor Castle In The Distance in November 2013 with an auction result of GBP 35,000.00 (€ 42,117.82).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 47 % übertroffen
Im November 2001 führte Christies in London die Auktion Important Portrait Miniatures including works from the durch, in der auch die Arbeit A gentleman, facing left in blue coat with black velvet collar and gilt buttons, white waistcoat, knotted white cravat with jabot, powdered curly hair and sidewhiskers von Philip Jean zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 1.762,50 (€ 2.804,69) und damit 47% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Philip Jean erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Paul Sandby (1731-1809), In Blue Coat, White Waistcoat And Cravat, Powdered Hair En Queue, Holding A Pen And Open Book; Landscape Background With Windsor Castle In The Distance im November 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 35.000,00 (€ 42.117,82).
