Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%

This artwork by Robert Levrac-Tournières achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in October 2014. In the Old Master and British Paintings auction, the work Portrait of Pierre de la Roche, bust-length, in an ochre jacket and a purple wrap, with a feathered cap sold for GBP 21,250.00 (€ 27,133.18) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 8,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Robert Levrac-Tournières - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Portrait Of A Gentleman, Three-Quarter-Length, In A Blue Velvet Jacket With Gold Frogging And A Purple Mantle, Gesturing Towards A Book On A Marble Table, which sold at auction in December 2015 for GBP 62,500.00 (€ 84,872.00).

Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von Robert Levrac-Tournières erzielte im Oktober 2014 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Old Master and British Paintings wurde die Arbeit Portrait of Pierre de la Roche, bust-length, in an ochre jacket and a purple wrap, with a feathered cap für GBP 21.250,00 (€ 27.133,18) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 8.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Robert Levrac-Tournières mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Portrait Of A Gentleman, Three-Quarter-Length, In A Blue Velvet Jacket With Gold Frogging And A Purple Mantle, Gesturing Towards A Book On A Marble Table beobachtet, die im Dezember 2015 für GBP 62.500,00 (€ 84.872,00) versteigert wurde.
