Sold at the upper estimate price

The work Two portraits of H.R.H. Princess Mary, Countess of Harewood (one illustrated) by Stephen Ward was sold in the Christie's Interiors auction at Christies in London in October 2014. The auction ended at the price of GBP 3,000.00 (€ 3,830.57), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. Admittedly, works by Stephen Ward have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Mandy Rice-Davies in March 2018 with an auction result of GBP 15,000.00 (€ 17,078.33).
