Upper estimate price exceeded by 50 %.

The work Two Bay Horses in a Landscape by Thomas Sherwood La Fontaine was sold in the Sporting Art auction at Christies in New York in December 2005. The »bidding war« ended at USD 18,000.00 (€ 15,200.14), 50% above the upper estimate. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Thomas Sherwood La Fontaine; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot A Polo Match sold at auction in December 2005 with the realized price of USD 31,200.00 (€ 26,346.90).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 50 % übertroffen
