Upper estimate price exceeded by 77 %.
This artwork by Theodore Roussel achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in September 2008. In the Christie's Interiors auction, the work A clearing in the woods; and Elegant figures in a clearing sold for GBP 1,062.50 (€ 1,343.42) - 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 Theodore Roussel achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portraits Of Dorothy, Countess Of Leicester (1598-1659); Lady Anne Rich (1612-1638); Anne, Countess Of Middlesex (D.1670); And Mary Kirk (1646-1711) in July 2011 with an auction result of GBP 11,875.00 (€ 13,628.34).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 77 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Theodore Roussel erzielte im September 2008 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Christie's Interiors wurde die Arbeit A clearing in the woods; and Elegant figures in a clearing für GBP 1.062,50 (€ 1.343,42) 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 Theodore Roussel erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portraits Of Dorothy, Countess Of Leicester (1598-1659); Lady Anne Rich (1612-1638); Anne, Countess Of Middlesex (D.1670); And Mary Kirk (1646-1711) im Juli 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 11.875,00 (€ 13.628,34).
