Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Livre contenant passement de moresques trèsutile a toutes gens exercant ledict art (Geymller 321) by Jacques Androuet du Cerceau I was auctioned at Christies in New York in June 2013. The result of USD 2,000 (€ 1,537) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 2,000 - 3,000. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Jacques Androuet du Cerceau I achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work A Façade of Five Bays In The Corinthian Order, The Central Bay With A Doorway Surmounted By The French Royal Arms, The Surmounting Balustrade With A Central Arch With A Relief of A Mounted Falconer And Two Female Figures Supporting A Fleur-De-Lys in July 2006 with an auction result of GBP 38,400 (€
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Die Arbeit Livre contenant passement de moresques trèsutile a toutes gens exercant ledict art (Geymller 321) von Jacques Androuet du Cerceau I kam im Juni 2013 bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 2.000,00 (€ 1.537,28) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 2.000,00 – 3.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Jacques Androuet du Cerceau I erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit A Façade of Five Bays In The Corinthian Order, The Central Bay With A Doorway Surmounted By The French Royal Arms, The Surmounting Balustrade With A Central Arch With A Relief of A Mounted Falconer And Two Female Figures Supporting A Fleur-De-Lys im Juli 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 38.400,00 (€ 56.213,10).
