Lemuel Francis Abbott (Leicestershire c.1760-1802 London)
Portrait of Warren Hastings (1732-1818), Governor-General of Bengal, bust-length, in a blue coat and white stock
oil on canvas
30 x 24¾ in. (76.3 x 62.9 cm.)

Upper estimated price slightly exceeded

The work Portrait of Warren Hastings (1732-1818), Governor-General of Bengal, bust-length, in a blue coat and white stock by Lemuel Francis Abbott was sold in the Travel, Science and Natural History auction at Christies in London in April 2010. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 10,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 11,250.00 (€ 12,946.55). 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).

Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen

Die Arbeit Portrait of Warren Hastings (1732-1818), Governor-General of Bengal, bust-length, in a blue coat and white stock von Lemuel Francis Abbott wurde im April 2010 in der Auktion Travel, Science and Natural History bei Christies in London versteigert. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 10.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 11.250,00 (€ 12.946,55) einen neuen Besitzer. 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).
