Upper estimate price exceeded by 27 %.
The work The Knight'S Challenge by John Gilbert was auctioned at Christies in Sydney in September 2005. It achieved a price of AUD 3,824.00 (€ 2,423.85), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 27%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by John Gilbert - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The marriage of Katherine and Petruchio: The Taming of the Shrew, which sold at auction in November 2012 for GBP 5,000.00 (€ 6,159.49).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 27 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit The Knight'S Challenge von John Gilbert kam im September 2005 bei Christies in Sydney zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von AUD 3.824,00 (€ 2.423,85) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 27%. Für andere Arbeiten von John Gilbert mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The marriage of Katherine and Petruchio: The Taming of the Shrew beobachtet, die im November 2012 für GBP 5.000,00 (€ 6.159,49) versteigert wurde.
