This artwork by Philip Jean achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in London in July 2009. In the Early British Drawings, Watercolours and Portrait Miniatures auction, the work Portrait Of Admiral Skeffington Lutwidge (D. 1814); Together With A Leather-Bound Bible And A Document Citing Lutwidge Family History sold for GBP 15,000.00 (€ 17,020.50) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 6,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Philip Jean - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Paul Sandby (1731-1809), In Blue Coat, White Waistcoat And Cravat, Powdered Hair En Queue, Holding A Pen And Open Book; Landscape Background With Windsor Castle In The Distance, which sold at auction in November 2013 for GBP 35,000.00 (€ 42,117.82).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Philip Jean erzielte im Juli 2009 bei Sothebys in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis.
