Upper estimate price exceeded by 27 %.
The work Portrait of a young boy, three-quarter length, in a brown coat and breeches, holding a skipping rope, in a wooded landscape by Lemuel Francis Abbott was sold in the British Pictures (1500-1850) auction at Christies in London in June 2004. It achieved a price of GBP 10,157.50 (€ 15,117.40), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 27%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Lemuel Francis Abbott achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait of Horatio, Viscount Nelson, KB, Vice-Admiral of the White, half-length, in naval uniform -- The Kilgraston sketch, 1797 in October 2005 with an auction result of GBP 164,800.00 (€ 243,030.20).

Die Arbeit Portrait of a young boy, three-quarter length, in a brown coat and breeches, holding a skipping rope, in a wooded landscape von Lemuel Francis Abbott wurde im Juni 2004 in der Auktion British Pictures (1500-1850) bei Christies in London versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 10.157,50 (€ 15.117,40) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 27%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Lemuel Francis Abbott erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait of Horatio, Viscount Nelson, KB, Vice-Admiral of the White, half-length, in naval uniform -- The Kilgraston sketch, 1797 im Oktober 2005 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 164.800,00 (€ 243.030,20).
