Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The Death Of Procris by Anton Mirou was sold in the Old Masters Day Sale auction at Sothebys in London in July 2017. The price achieved of GBP 25,000.00 (€ 27,896.16) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 20,000.00 – 30,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Anton Mirou - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Landscape with a view of Bad Schwalbach in the Taunus, which sold at auction in July 2021 for GBP 94,500.00 (€ 110,820.84).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit The Death Of Procris von Anton Mirou wurde im Juli 2017 in der Auktion Old Masters Day Sale bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 25.000,00 (€ 27.896,16) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 20.000,00 – 30.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Anton Mirou mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Landscape with a view of Bad Schwalbach in the Taunus beobachtet, die im Juli 2021 für GBP 94.500,00 (€ 110.820,84) versteigert wurde.
