The work Design for a decorative panel with a Triumph of Diana by Antoine Caron was sold in the OLD MASTER DRAWINGS auction at Christies in New York in January 2001. The »bidding war« ended at USD 56,400.00 (€ 60,593.04), 41% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Antoine Caron achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work An Allegory of the Triumph of Summer in May 2003 with an auction result of USD 903,500.00 (€ 767,890.53).

Die Arbeit Design for a decorative panel with a Triumph of Diana von Antoine Caron wurde im Januar 2001 in der Auktion OLD MASTER DRAWINGS bei Christies in New York versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 56.400,00 (€ 60.593,04) und damit 41% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Antoine Caron erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit An Allegory of the Triumph of Summer im Mai 2003 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 903.500,00 (€ 767.890,53).
