Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
When the work Countess Sofia Vladimirovna Panina, née Orlova (1774-1844), in black dress tied at her waist with black ribbon, ruched sleeves, a bow at her corsage, large lace collar, a white bonnet adorned with red carnations tied under her chin by Anthelme-François Lagrenée was auctioned at Christies in London in November 2007, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 1,500.00 but the actual price achieved was mo Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Anthelme-François Lagrenée; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Femme à la robe noire et au châle bleu tenant un éventail sold at auction in June this year with the realized price of EUR 15,744.00.
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Countess Sofia Vladimirovna Panina, née Orlova (1774-1844), in black dress tied at her waist with black ribbon, ruched sleeves, a bow at her corsage, large lace collar, a white bonnet adorned with red carnations tied under her chin von Anthelme-François Lagrenée im November 2007 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 1.500,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 5.625,00 (€ 7.876,46) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Anthelme-François Lagrenée; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit Femme à la robe noire et au châle bleu tenant un éventail im Juni diesen Jahres mit dem Hammerpreis von EUR 15.744,00.
