Upper estimated price slightly exceeded

The work Study For Merry Music; Study For Serious Music by Lawrence Alma-Tadema was auctioned at Sothebys in London in July 2017. It achieved a price of GBP 6,000.00 (€ 6,695.08), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 20%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Lawrence Alma-Tadema achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work British the Finding Of Moses in November 2010 with an auction result of USD 35,922,500.00 (€ 27,556,382.33).

Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen

Die Arbeit Study For Merry Music; Study For Serious Music von Lawrence Alma-Tadema kam im Juli 2017 bei Sothebys in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 6.000,00 (€ 6.695,08) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 20%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Lawrence Alma-Tadema erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit British the Finding Of Moses im November 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 35.922.500,00 (€ 27.556.382,33).
