Auction result well in line with expectations
In April 2007 Christies in London held the auction Old Master and British Pictures and Old Master Drawings, which included the work A vivandière being kidnapped by a mounted arab warrior by Alexandre Denis Abel de Pujol. The price achieved of GBP 264.00 (€ 386.53) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 200.00 – 400.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Alexandre Denis Abel de Pujol achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Scènes Mythologiques in June 2007 with an auction result of EUR 6,000.00.
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im April 2007 führte Christies in London die Auktion Old Master and British Pictures and Old Master Drawings durch, in der auch die Arbeit A vivandière being kidnapped by a mounted arab warrior von Alexandre Denis Abel de Pujol zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 264,00 (€ 386,53) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 200,00 – 400,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Alexandre Denis Abel de Pujol erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Scènes Mythologiques im Juni 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 6.000,00.
