A top price for Thomas Edwin Mostyn
When the work Portrait of a lady, three-quarter-length, in a green and gold dress by Thomas Edwin Mostyn was auctioned at Christies in London in September 2003, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 5,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than seven times as high at GBP 39,950.00 (€ 40,240.55). This high result makes Portrait of a lady, three-quarter-length, in a green and gold dress the most expensive artwork by Thomas Edwin Mostyn that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Thomas Edwin Mostyn
Als die Arbeit Portrait of a lady, three-quarter-length, in a green and gold dress von Thomas Edwin Mostyn im September 2003 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 5.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 39.950,00 (€ 40.240,55) mehr als siebenmal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht Portrait of a lady, three-quarter-length, in a green and gold dress zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Thomas Edwin Mostyn, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
