Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%

This artwork by Rupert Shephard achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in October 2005. In the Prints and Multiples auction, the work Four plates, from London - The Passing Scene sold for GBP 840.00 (€ 1,238.75) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 300.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Rupert Shephard - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Native Women With Mats, which sold at auction in June 2005 for GBP 2,400.00 (€ 3,556.95).
