Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%

This artwork by Jan Kupetzki achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in December 2011. In the Old Masters and British Paintings auction, the work Portrait of a gentleman, three-quarter-length, holding a flute sold for GBP 27,500.00 (€ 32,935.13) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 12,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Jan Kupetzki; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Portrait of Susanna Klaus, The Wife of The Artist, Half-Length, In A White Dess And Brown Shawl, Holding A Book In Her Right Hand sold at auction in November 2006 with the realized price of EUR 57,600.00.
