Auction result well in line with expectations

The work An Imaginary Church Interior with a Town beyond by Abel Grimmer was sold in the Tableaux Dessins Sculptures 1300-1900, Session II auction at Sothebys in Paris in June 2021. The price achieved of EUR 16,380.00 was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as EUR 15,000.00 – 20,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Abel Grimmer achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Dix mois de l'année in November last year with an auction result of EUR 1,538,400.00.

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit An Imaginary Church Interior with a Town beyond von Abel Grimmer wurde im Juni 2021 in der Auktion Tableaux Dessins Sculptures 1300-1900, Session II bei Sothebys in Paris versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von EUR 16.380,00 lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit EUR 15.000,00 – 20.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Abel Grimmer erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Dix mois de l'année im November letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 1.538.400,00.
