Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Juli 2006 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Portrait of Friedrich Franz I, Grand Duke of Mecklenburg-Schwerin (1756-1837), wearing the black uniform of the Mecklenburg infantry, a sash and badge of the order of the Black Eagle of Prussia and of the Red Eagle of Prussia von Rudolph Friedrich Carl Suhrlandt für GBP 1.920,00 (€ 2.810,65) erwerben.
