Upper estimate price exceeded by 37 %.
The work The citadel, Cairo, and the mosque of Mohammed Ali by Spyridon Scarvelli was sold in the British And Continental Watercolours And Drawings auction at Christies in London in October 2001. It achieved a price of GBP 822.50 (€ 1,329.28), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 37%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Spyridon Scarvelli achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Piraeus in May 2007 with an auction result of GBP 18,000.00 (€ 26,488.22).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 37 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit The citadel, Cairo, and the mosque of Mohammed Ali von Spyridon Scarvelli wurde im Oktober 2001 in der Auktion British And Continental Watercolours And Drawings bei Christies in London versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 822,50 (€ 1.329,28) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 37%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Spyridon Scarvelli erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Piraeus im Mai 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 18.000,00 (€ 26.488,22).
