Upper estimate price exceeded by 49 %.
The work The young puppet maker by Edwin Thomas Roberts was sold in the British and Victorian Pictures auction at Christies in London in September 2003. It achieved a price of GBP 2,232.50 (€ 2,248.74), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 49%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Edwin Thomas Roberts achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work "Rule Britannia! A Merry Crew" in November 2002 with an auction result of GBP 28,680.00 (€ 44,911.40).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 49 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit The young puppet maker von Edwin Thomas Roberts wurde im September 2003 in der Auktion British and Victorian Pictures bei Christies in London versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 2.232,50 (€ 2.248,74) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 49%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Edwin Thomas Roberts erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit "Rule Britannia! A Merry Crew" im November 2002 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 28.680,00 (€ 44.911,40).
