Upper estimate price exceeded by 69 %.
The work A British frigate heeling in the breeze by Thomas Buttersworth, Sen. was auctioned at Christies in London in May 2004. It achieved a price of GBP 2,031.50 (€ 3,048.00), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 69%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Thomas Buttersworth, Sen. achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work 'Nelson's patent bridge for boarding First Rates' at the Battle of Cape St. Vincent, 14th February, 1797 in May 2003 with an auction result of GBP 24,675.00 (€ 34,378.49).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 69 % übertroffen
