Auction result well in line with expectations
In December 2000 Christies in London held the auction OLD MASTER DRAWINGS - CSK, which included the work Design for the decoration of a cupola in a theatre by Alexandre Denis Abel de Pujol. The price achieved of GBP 1,292.50 (€ 2,058.94) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 1,000.00 – 1,500.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Alexandre Denis Abel de Pujol - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Scènes Mythologiques, which sold at auction in June 2007 for EUR 6,000.00.
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Dezember 2000 führte Christies in London die Auktion OLD MASTER DRAWINGS - CSK durch, in der auch die Arbeit Design for the decoration of a cupola in a theatre von Alexandre Denis Abel de Pujol zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 1.292,50 (€ 2.058,94) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 1.000,00 – 1.500,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Alexandre Denis Abel de Pujol mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Scènes Mythologiques beobachtet, die im Juni 2007 für EUR 6.000,00 versteigert wurde.
