A top price for Adolf Pirsch - as previously expected

In June 2002 Christies in London held the auction 19th Century European Art including Ottomans and Orientalist, which included the work A reclining nude reading by Adolf Pirsch. The price achieved of GBP 5,875.00 (€ 9,087.29) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 5,000.00 – 7,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, A reclining nude reading is the most expensive artwork by Adolf Pirsch that we have observed at auctions so far.

Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage

Im Juni 2002 führte Christies in London die Auktion 19th Century European Art including Ottomans and Orientalist durch, in der auch die Arbeit A reclining nude reading von Adolf Pirsch zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 5.875,00 (€ 9.087,29) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 5.000,00 – 7.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist A reclining nude reading das teuerste Kunstwerk von Adolf Pirsch, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
