Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Luke Sullivan achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in June 2004. In the THE DORIS DUKE COLLECTION auction, the work British Views: Five Plates sold for USD 5,975.00 (€ 4,905.99) - well above the upper estimate of USD 2,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Luke Sullivan; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Portrait Of A Lady, Possibly Kitty Fisher sold at auction in April 2008 with the realized price of GBP 6,250.00 (€ 7,967.87).
