Upper estimate price exceeded by 50 %.
The work Portrait Of An Infantry Officer, Called Colonel Parkhurst, Circa 1780 by Richard Cosway was auctioned at Sothebys in London in July 2019. It achieved a price of GBP 7,500.00 (€ 8,234.50), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 50%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Richard Cosway achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait of Maria Fitzherbert in July 2019 with an auction result of GBP 81,250.00 (€ 89,207.10).
