Upper estimate price exceeded by 28 %.
The work 'Catching Wild Elephants At The Government Khedah In The Mysore District' by Richard Caton de Woodville was sold in the Travel & Exploration auction at Bonhams in London in September 2021. It achieved a price of GBP 1,147.50 (€ 1,335.13), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 28%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Richard Caton de Woodville achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Bonaparte in Egypt, 21st July, 1798 'Soldiers! Fifty centuries look down upon you from the summit of the pyramids' in June 2000 with an auction result of GBP 80,750.00 (€ 127,998.69).
