Upper estimate price exceeded by 88 %.
This artwork by Charles D'Oyly achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in January 2009. In the Christie's Interiors auction, the work Caricature of George Chinnery sold for GBP 1,125.00 (€ 1,266.37) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 600.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Charles D'Oyly achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Pushkar, India, with a parade of figures, elephants and horses in the foreground in October 2011 with an auction result of GBP 22,500.00 (€ 26,039.47).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 88 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Charles D'Oyly erzielte im Januar 2009 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Christie's Interiors wurde die Arbeit Caricature of George Chinnery für GBP 1.125,00 (€ 1.266,37) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 600,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Charles D'Oyly erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Pushkar, India, with a parade of figures, elephants and horses in the foreground im Oktober 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 22.500,00 (€ 26.039,47).
