Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In April 2011 Sothebys in London held the auction Old Master & Early British Paintings, which included the work Portrait Of Lady Elizabeth Bruce (D.1745) by Godfrey Kneller. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 12,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 13,750.00 (€ 15,484.87). Admittedly, works by Godfrey Kneller have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Portrait of Elizabeth, Duchess of Dorset, Full-Length, In A White Dress With A Blue Wrap, Leaning On A Stone Pedestal With Her Left Hand, Beside A Draped Curtain in April 2008 with an auction result of GBP 50,900.00 (€ 64,890.31).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im April 2011 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion Old Master & Early British Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit Portrait Of Lady Elizabeth Bruce (D.1745) von Godfrey Kneller zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 12.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 13.750,00 (€ 15.484,87) einen neuen Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Godfrey Kneller auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Portrait of Elizabeth, Duchess of Dorset, Full-Length, In A White Dress With A Blue Wrap, Leaning On A Stone Pedestal With Her Left Hand, Beside A Draped Curtain im April 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 50.900,00 (€ 64.890,31).
