Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%

This artwork by William Leighton Leitch achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in April 2011. In the Christie's Interiors auction, the work Fontana di Cavelle, Villa Borghese, Rome sold for GBP 1,750.00 (€ 1,970.80) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 700.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Leighton Leitch achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Villa of Lucullus At Miseneum in November 2005 with an auction result of GBP 48,000.00 (€ 70,518.07).

Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von William Leighton Leitch erzielte im April 2011 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Christie's Interiors wurde die Arbeit Fontana di Cavelle, Villa Borghese, Rome für GBP 1.750,00 (€ 1.970,80) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 700,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von William Leighton Leitch erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Villa of Lucullus At Miseneum im November 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 48.000,00 (€ 70.518,07).
