Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Antoine Coypel achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in January 2011. In the Old Master Drawings auction, the work Study For The Funeral Of Pallas sold for USD 158,500.00 (€ 115,566.90) - well above the upper estimate of USD 70,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Antoine Coypel achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Allegory Of Music (A Portrait Of Mme. De Maintenon With The Natural Children Of Louis Xiv) in January 2015 with an auction result of USD 1,565,000.00 (€ 1,386,182.46).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Antoine Coypel erzielte im Januar 2011 bei Sothebys in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Old Master Drawings wurde die Arbeit Study For The Funeral Of Pallas für USD 158.500,00 (€ 115.566,90) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 70.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Antoine Coypel erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Allegory Of Music (A Portrait Of Mme. De Maintenon With The Natural Children Of Louis Xiv) im Januar 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.565.000,00 (€ 1.386.182,46).
