ALFRED BARYE (FRENCH, 2ND HALF 19TH CENTURY)
Âne de l'Afrique (African donkey)
signed ALF. BARYE
bronze, dark-green/black patina
10½ in. (26.7 cm.) high

Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%

This artwork by Alfred Barye achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in March 2004. In the The House Sale auction, the work Âne de l'Afrique (African donkey) sold for USD 3,346.00 (€ 2,722.10) - well above the upper estimate of USD 1,200.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Alfred Barye - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Vermout, cheval de course, which sold at auction in December 2005 for USD 9,600.00 (€ 8,106.74).

Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen

Dieses Kunstwerk von Alfred Barye erzielte im März 2004 bei Christies in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion The House Sale wurde die Arbeit Âne de l'Afrique (African donkey) für USD 3.346,00 (€ 2.722,10) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 1.200,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Alfred Barye mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Vermout, cheval de course beobachtet, die im Dezember 2005 für USD 9.600,00 (€ 8.106,74) versteigert wurde.
