Upper estimate price exceeded by 35 %.
The work Angel Of The Resurrection by Benjamin West was auctioned at Christies in London in December 2013. It achieved a price of GBP 8,125.00 (€ 9,773.11), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 35%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Benjamin West achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait Of Prince William (1776-1834), Later 2Nd Duke Of Gloucester And Edinburgh, And His Elder Sister, Princess Sophia (1773-1844) Of Gloucester in July 2013 with an auction result of GBP 578,500.00 (€ 661,037.08).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 35 % übertroffen
