Auction result well in line with expectations
In January 2011 Sothebys in New York held the auction Old Master Drawings, which included the work A Ship Under Construction by Ange-Joseph-Antoine Roux. The price achieved of USD 10,000.00 (€ 7,291.29) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 8,000.00 – 12,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Ange-Joseph-Antoine Roux - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work An important series of twenty-two watercolours depicting various traditional craft operating in Mediterranean coastal waters and a fine view of the imposing entrance to the port of Marseilles, on eleven double sided sheets, bound into a red leather a, which sold at auction in May 2005 for GBP 18,000.00 (€ 26,57
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Januar 2011 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Old Master Drawings durch, in der auch die Arbeit A Ship Under Construction von Ange-Joseph-Antoine Roux zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 10.000,00 (€ 7.291,29) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 8.000,00 – 12.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Ange-Joseph-Antoine Roux mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit An important series of twenty-two watercolours depicting various traditional craft operating in Mediterranean coastal waters and a fine view of the imposing entrance to the port of Marseilles, on eleven double sided sheets, bound into a red leather a beobachtet, die im Mai 2005 für GBP 18.000,00 (€ 26.573,65) versteigert wurde.
