pendant frame with blue glass border, hairwork reverse
oval, 1 1/16 in. (26 mm.) high

Upper estimate price exceeded by 60 %.

In April 2006 Christies in London held the auction Silver and Plate, Portrait Miniatures, Objects of Vertu and Icons, which included the work A gentleman in gold-bordered green coat and waistcoat by James Scouler. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 480.00 (€ 692.78), 60% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by James Scouler achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work William Powell (1735/1736-1769), In Fur-Lined Blue Gown, White Shirt With Lace Collar And Cuffs, Seated On A Chair With His Left Arm Resting On The Chair Back, Holding In His Right Hand A Playbill For A Double Bill Of Cymbeline And George Colman The Elder in November 2013 with an auction result of GBP 8,750.00 (€ 10

Oberer Schätzpreis um 60 % übertroffen

Im April 2006 führte Christies in London die Auktion Silver and Plate, Portrait Miniatures, Objects of Vertu and Icons durch, in der auch die Arbeit A gentleman in gold-bordered green coat and waistcoat von James Scouler zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 480,00 (€ 692,78) und damit 60% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von James Scouler erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit William Powell (1735/1736-1769), In Fur-Lined Blue Gown, White Shirt With Lace Collar And Cuffs, Seated On A Chair With His Left Arm Resting On The Chair Back, Holding In His Right Hand A Playbill For A Double Bill Of Cymbeline And George Colman The Elder im November 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 8.750,00 (€ 10.529,45).
