Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Robert Hunter achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in April 2011. In the Christie's Interiors auction, the work Goldfish sold for GBP 2,000.00 (€ 2,252.34) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 800.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Robert Hunter achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Group portrait of George Rochfort, 2nd Earl of Belvedere, and his second wife Jane, daughter of Rev. James Mackay, the latter holding a baby in her arms, three-quarter-length, seated on a sofa, the former in Volunteer uniform, in an interior with a d in May 2002 with an auction result of GBP 149,650.00 (€ 234,353.92
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Robert Hunter erzielte im April 2011 bei Christies in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Christie's Interiors wurde die Arbeit Goldfish für GBP 2.000,00 (€ 2.252,34) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 800,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Robert Hunter erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Group portrait of George Rochfort, 2nd Earl of Belvedere, and his second wife Jane, daughter of Rev. James Mackay, the latter holding a baby in her arms, three-quarter-length, seated on a sofa, the former in Volunteer uniform, in an interior with a d im Mai 2002 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 149.650,00 (€ 234.353,92).
