Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Solomon Joseph Solomon achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in July 2018. In the Victorian Pre-Raphaelite & British Impressionist Art auction, the work Self-portrait, circa 1896 sold for GBP 68,750.00 (€ 77,083.87) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 30,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Solomon Joseph Solomon achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Eve in November 2017 with an auction result of USD 975,000.00 (€ 819,465.46).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Solomon Joseph Solomon erzielte im Juli 2018 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Victorian Pre-Raphaelite & British Impressionist Art wurde die Arbeit Self-portrait, circa 1896 für GBP 68.750,00 (€ 77.083,87) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 30.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Solomon Joseph Solomon erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Eve im November 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 975.000,00 (€ 819.465,46).
