The work A gentleman, facing left in brown coat and yellow waistcoat and frilled cravat, black stock by André Léon Larue was sold in the Miniatures auction at Christies in London in May 2000. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 1,997.50 (€ 3,205.25), 33% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by André Léon Larue - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A young gentleman called Alexandre L[..., in fur-bordered bottle green coat, open white shirt and red checked scarf loosely knotted, fair hair and moustache|AID716323], which sold at auction in June 2008 for GBP 6,875.00 (€ 8,690.23).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 33 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit A gentleman, facing left in brown coat and yellow waistcoat and frilled cravat, black stock von André Léon Larue wurde im Mai 2000 in der Auktion Miniatures bei Christies in London versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 1.997,50 (€ 3.205,25) und damit 33% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von André Léon Larue mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit A young gentleman called Alexandre L[..., in fur-bordered bottle green coat, open white shirt and red checked scarf loosely knotted, fair hair and moustache|AID716323] beobachtet, die im Juni 2008 für GBP 6.875,00 (€ 8.690,23) versteigert wurde.
