The work Portrait of John Aspinwall Roosevelt, Age Eleven by Pierre Troubetzkoy was auctioned at Christies in New York in February 2001. It achieved a price of USD 8,225.00 (€ 8,928.57), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 65%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Pierre Troubetzkoy - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Portrait of Edith, Marchioness of Londonderry, with Viscount Castlereagh, which sold at auction in May 2014 for GBP 20,000.00 (€ 24,580.65).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 65 % übertroffen
